Case Island Weather Warnings
tornado warning in effect At 8:10 p.m. EDT, Environment Canada meteorologists are tracking a severe thunderstorm that is possibly producing a tornado. Damaging winds, large hail and locally intense rainfall are also possible. A severe thunderstorm capable of producing a tornado is located 7 kilometres west of Savanne, moving northeast at 65 km/h. Hazard: Tornado, toonie size hail and 100 km/h wind gusts. Locations impacted include: Ricestalk Lake, Muskeg Lake and Taman Lake. ### This is a dangerous and potentially life-threatening situation. Tornado warnings are issued when imminent or occurring thunderstorms are likely to produce or are producing tornadoes. Take cover immediately, if threatening weather approaches. If you hear a roaring sound or see a funnel cloud, swirling debris near the ground, flying debris, or any threatening weather approaching, take shelter immediately. Go indoors to a room on the lowest floor, away from outside walls and windows, such as a basement, bathroom, stairwell or interior closet. Leave mobile homes, vehicles, tents, trailers and other temporary or free-standing shelter, and move to a strong building if you can. As a last resort, lie in a low spot and protect your head from flying debris. Lightning kills and injures Canadians every year. Remember, when thunder roars, go indoors! Emergency Management Ontario recommends that you take cover immediately if threatening weather approaches.
Environment Canada
special weather statement in effect Significant rainfall possible Tuesday. Hazards: 40 to 80 mm of rain. Locally higher amounts possible. Discussion: A warm and moist airmass will bring the potential for significant rainfall Tuesday. Two rounds of showers and thunderstorms are expected with the first occurring overnight into the morning and the second occurring Tuesday afternoon through the evening. Areas that receive multiple thunderstorms or prolonged rainfall from slow moving thunderstorms may have the potential to exceed 80 mm, locally. At this point, the exact locations for the heaviest rain remains fairly uncertain. Rainfall warnings may be required as confidence grows. For information concerning flooding, please consult your local Conservation Authority or Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry office.
