These types of funnel clouds are generated by weak rotation, and normally, are not a danger near the ground. However, there is a chance they could intensify and become a weak landspout tornado.

Environment Canada is asking the public to treat any funnel cloud sighting seriously. If a funnel cloud develops nearby, prepare to take shelter.
