The Storm Prediction Center in the United States has issued a PSD watch including a high risk for severe weather over a large area of north eastern USA. If in the area prepare for a tornado emergency especially this afternoon. Links to weather data, watches and warnings can be found on the SPC site (please do not flood the site if you are NOT in the danger area!) or follow storm chaser reports in real time in the side bar of this site (best way to conserve bandwidth and avoid emergency service sites from crashing).
Take care and stay safe!

Slight Risk Today - Last Map Of 2013
12:30am Update:
Snip of the current Echo Tops shows a giant storm over south east Saskatchewan, moving north east very quickly and still growing!
11pm Tuesday, September 17, 2013
"Big storm moving north from Montana might be knocking the power out for Weyburn/Estevan areas overnight. Just saw a 83mph wind reports from NWS in Dawson County. Other high wind reports of 74 to 67mph wind gusts over the past 2 hours. That is extremely high! Echo tops are showing this a very powerful storm heading north east into south east Saskatchewan at the moment. Get your candles and flash lights ready if you are in that area!"
This situation is currently developing into what should be the last major thunderstorm event of the year on the Canadian Prairies. This will be mainly a rain event for south east Saskatchewan into southern Manitoba with the strongest storms happening just south of the US border on Wednesday afternoon. The risk for severe weather is only slight but it is worth keeping an eye on the weather and staying prepared.

Storm Cell Showing On Satellite Image
Now very hot and humid in the city of Regina and clouds are clearing to the south west. As of 3:30pm we have what looks like a storm cell showing up at the highest level on satellite but not as yet showing up on radar or echo tops. I have a wedding to attend this weekend so updates will be very sparse after this. Stay safe and heed all Environment Canada warnings.
