Environment Canada is warning about possible funnel clouds in areas near Regina and Moose Jaw, Sask. Monday afternoon.
According to Environment Canada, a funnel cloud was seen at 12:45 p.m. near Aylesbury, Sask. A few more funnel clouds have been seen northeast of Regina.
The weather agency says these types of funnel clouds are generated by weak rotation and they are not normally a danger near the ground. However, Environment Canada is warning that there is a chance the rotation could become a weak, small tornado.
The following Saskatchewan communities are under a weather advisory for funnel clouds: Regina, Moose Jaw, Pense, Central Butte, Craik, Fort Qu’Appelle, Indian Head, Lumsden, Pilot Butte, Moosomin, Grenfell, Kipling, Wawota.
