Yellow Watch - Severe Thunderstorm

Conditions are favourable for the development of severe thunderstorms that may be capable of producing strong wind gusts, large hail and heavy rain.

A trough of low pressure tracking across southwestern Saskatchewan is expected to initiate thunderstorms late this afternoon and evening. Some of these thunderstorms may become severe.

As thunderstorms develop and track eastward, the watch may be expanded this evening.
