Environment Canada issued a special weather statement Thursday morning for areas of western Saskatchewan, suggesting funnel clouds could develop in the afternoon.
The statement was issued for areas around Meadow Lake, Big River, Green Lake, Pierceland, The Battlefords, Unity, Maidstone and St. Walburg.
