This morning’s visitor stats are off the scale. All the visitors are from Canada and all have been looking at this. Seems there is a Leamington in Canada – I had never heard of – which has just experienced a tornado. It would seem that Leamington Ontario is somewhat more substantial than Leamington New Zealand – by a factor of about four – and is located on the northern shore of Lake Erie. Leamington NZ is bordered to the north by New Zealand’s longest river – the Waikato. Leamington NZ tornado October 2008 v Leamington CA tornado June 2010.










One response to “Leamington Waikato NZ v Leamington Ontario CA”
I can hardly believe this. I live almost in Leamington (Kingsville) and was hit by the recent 2010 tornado. Our house is barely standing—all trees gone. Now our trees in this area are quite large and very old—100 years. Here is the kicker, my son lives in Wellington, NZ (Johnsville)–re-located there 5-6 years ago. I have visited NZ several times. We have travelled both North and South Island–I am sure I have been to/near Waikato. The name ‘Leamington’ would have stuck out like a sore thumb. I am surprised I didn’t see it Will definitely have a look next visit….
