Watch the youtube video. Going to guess EF0 Tornado based on the tree branches being stripped and trees being torn down.
Cold air aloft and warm waters likely contributed to the develop of a mesocyclone, and a watersprout that had an expansive cone. It looked to be potentially an EF2 or EF3 based on the width. Fortunately it weakened as it moved onshore to an EF0.
Fortunately this supercell skirted over largely uninhabited land. Landfall as an EF2 in Steveston-Richmond could have proved disastrous.
Looks like it's over for now as the airmass aloft is stabilizing.
I just saw the video pretty amazing to see the branches flying like that and the tree falling.

That's the only weather action you're allowed out there in the cheap seats You might want to MOVE!!
Hound we need a tornado smilie too, the dancing chicken doesn't really get the enormity of the situation across
Yes Ms.Sunshinecoast it feels like l'm sitting in the nose bleed section watching the action from afar, AR events, wind warnings and now the tornado of the century.
Omg.
And here I thought seeing the first flakes of the season at my home was notable.
Tornado will always take the day.
That said I have no interest in seeing on. A bit afraid of them. Saw a water spout over Osoyoos Lake in the late 90s. Sitting at my uncles waterfront home and it just ran from one side of the lake to the other. No more than 50 m away from where we were. Crazy winds along with it. Saw it once no need to again.
Burnaby Mountain @ 365 m..
Stats? Fresh out of those. But I win anyway. I got all the inches.

Are we getting our Tornadic photos from the dark web.
Maybe that's where our weather's coming from. 'They've' figured out how to control the weather but it's gone a little wrong, just like in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
but in her defense it was the misleading daily hive article.
