Environment Canada confirms two tornadoes touched down near Rockglen, Sask., Friday night.
The first one, northwest of Rockglen, occurred at 4:03 p.m. and the second, south of the community, at 4:29 p.m.
No damage from the tornadoes was reported.
There was also a waterspout near Moose Jaw at 1:06 p.m., according to Environment Canada. A waterspout is a rotating column of water and spray formed by a whirlwind occurring over bodies of water.
The Weather Network confirmed the tornadoes and said severe storms were still threatening parts of southern Saskatchewan Saturday.
Several tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings were put in place by Environment Canada Friday afternoon. Tornadoes were threatening the areas of Assiniboia, Gravelbourg and Coronach.
According to the weather network, a “slow-moving low pressure system draped across the south, with a stationary front to the north, will be keeping the Prairies under the threat for severe thunderstorms Saturday and Sunday.”
Environment Canada said that on Saturday, “conditions are favourable for the development of dangerous thunderstorms that may be capable of producing strong wind gusts, damaging hail and heavy rain.”
Hail the size of a dime was also confirmed to have wreaked havoc across southeast Saskatchewan, while hail the size of a nickel came down in Wood Mountain, according to Environment Canada.
Residents are asked to continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada.
