Ontario has been experiencing a bout of extreme weather this summer, and it looks like that's far from over.

On Tuesday, September 7, several parts of the province — particularly Southern Ontario — experienced extreme stormy weather, according to The Weather Network. People are sharing doomsday-like scenes they've captured as storm clouds move from region to region.
