Severe thunderstorm warnings in southeast Sask.

People out and about during the long weekend may need to keep an eye on the sky in central Saskatchewan.

Environment Canada has issued severe thunderstorm warnings for the entire southeast region of the province.

The areas affected are Moose Jaw, Outlook, Swift Current, and their surrounding areas.

Environment Canada says a low pressure system is moving across Saskatchewan, which will cause thunderstorms. Some of those storms may produce funnel clouds.

It does say these types of funnel clouds are generated by weak rotation under rapidly growing clouds or weak thunderstorms and is normally not a danger near the ground.

However, there is a chance that this rotation could intensify and become a weak landspout tornado.

Environment Canada said if conditions become more favourable for the development of landspout tornadoes, it will issue watches and warnings.
