Tornado Warnings Lifted in Saskatchewan and Northwestern Ontario
Good evening. We have some important updates regarding recent severe weather events. Earlier today, tornado warnings were issued for parts of Saskatchewan and northwestern Ontario as intense thunderstorms swept through these regions. These warnings were prompted by radar detections indicating the potential for tornadoes, as reported by Environment and Climate Change Canada.
However, there's some relief on the horizon. As of the latest updates, all tornado warnings in these areas have been lifted. This development follows a period of heightened alert earlier today. The initial tornado warnings were a direct result of severe thunderstorms that developed late Monday in Manitoba. These storms progressed eastward, impacting northwestern Ontario by Tuesday afternoon and evening. In Saskatchewan, another line of severe storms prompted a brief issuance of tornado warnings.

In northwestern Ontario, specific regions such as Lake of the Woods and Dryden were at the southern edge of the risk zone. Thankfully, the storms remained primarily north of Thunder Bay and the majority of Highway 17, reducing the overall threat to these communities. Nonetheless, the area is not out of the woods just yet. There is a rainfall warning in effect for regions including Ear Falls, Perrault Falls, and Western Lac Seul. Residents in these areas should prepare for significant rainfall amounts, ranging from 50 to 80 millimeters, as the slow-moving storms continue to affect the Kenora and Red Lake regions.
Looking ahead, the stormy weather isn't over. There’s a potential for more storms on Wednesday and Thursday as a developing Prairie system approaches. It’s crucial for everyone in these regions to stay updated with the latest weather forecasts and advisories from The Weather Network to ensure their safety.
Stay vigilant and keep tuned in for real-time updates as we continue to monitor this developing situation. Your safety is our top priority.
