Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has confirmed that two tornados touched down in Saskatchewan this past weekend.
The first tornado was confirmed to have touched down on Friday evening at 6 p.m. near Coleville, north of Kindersley.
According to ECCC, a severe thunderstorm moved through the area, eventually leading to the tornado.
The second tornado was reported Saturday afternoon at 3:41 p.m. near Hepburn, north of Saskatoon.
Again, ECCC says a severe thunderstorm moved through the area, eventually leading to the tornado.
ECCC says both tornadoes have received preliminary severity reports of EF-0.
Meteorologists are now asking for pictures of any damage the tornadoes may have caused.
ECCC is asking people with information to email storm@ or call 1-800-239-0484.
Regarding both tornados, ECCC says it collaborated with the Northern Tornadoes Project to facilitate a remote storm damage survey.
'The results of this survey including a rating of the tornado's strength are preliminary and subject to change if more information becomes available,' ECCC said of both tornados.
