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. 'Thunderstorms should start late this afternoon and continue throughout the evening and taper off late this evening.'

If a tornado does happen, people should go into a room inside on the lowest floor, away from windows and walls. If they aren't near home, they should go into a strong building if they can. Other regions in Manitoba, including Dauphin and Roblin, are under a severe thunderstorm watch.
