There is some damage to a family farm after a possible tornado touched down in the Interlake on Saturday.
Darcy Timchishen and his family farm around Arborg, which is about a 41-minute drive east of Eriksdale and about an hour and a half drive directly north of Winnipeg.
Timchishen, says there was some minor damage from the storm.
“You could see the definite rotation of everything basically went by the house and across the farm and tipped over an auger, a conveyor, and dented some hopper bins.”
He believes it was a narrow storm because equipment 50 feet away from the damage wasn’t moved.
“The wind picked up and we could see the wind coming and all of a sudden a few trees snapped off right in front of us and the swirling twigs and branches and debris came right by the house on the farm here.”
Timchishen and his family had a full day of cleaning up yesterday and still have some more to do today.
