TOR has been discontinued, but the latest SVR mentions this.

DOPPLER RADAR HAS INDICATED WEAK ROTATION WITHIN THIS STORM. ALTHOUGH
CURRENT DATA DOES NOT INDICATE THE EXISTENCE OF A TORNADO...A TORNADO
MAY STILL DEVELOP. IF A TORNADO IS SPOTTED...ACT QUICKLY AND MOVE TO
A PLACE OF SAFETY INSIDE A STURDY STRUCTURE...SUCH AS A BASEMENT OR
SMALL INTERIOR ROOM.

Does anyone have any radar images of southern Ontario before 11:00 pm EST Friday night? There were severe thunderstorm warnings issued and I wanted to see what kind if weak line of storms were moving through.
