According to Environment and Climate Change Canada, the watch is in effect for several communities in the southwest corner of the province, including Virden, Souris, Melita, Minnedosa and Riding Mountain National Park. ADVERTISEMENT 'A low over Montana is bringing moisture and heat over southeastern Saskatchewan and southwestern Manitoba which will give a high potential for tornadoes, significant hail, strong winds and torrential precipitation this evening,' ECCC said in its alert.

The Long Lake wildfire in the Annapolis Valley remains out of control, and is composed of a series of fires that cover roughly 32 square kilometres of land. Meanwhile Hurricane Erin, tracking northward between the Carolinas and Bermuda, is expected to bring strong winds to Nova Scotia by Friday into Saturday — but no rainfall.
