Weather watches, warning issued in central Sask.

Not even the long weekend was saved from the possibility of severe weather.

Environment Canada issued a variety of weather watches Monday afternoon, in addition to issuing a severe weather warning.

Central Saskatchewan, from areas ranging from the Alberta border to areas as far east as Tisdale, are under severe weather warnings.

The lone severe weather watch in the province is for Buffalo Narrows and Peter Pond Lake. That storm could produce up to nickel-sized hail.

Thunderstorms in the province are expected to develop in the next few hours and last into the evening.
