At least one tornado has been confirmed to have touched down in southern Saskatchewan.

Western University’s Northern Tornadoes Project says it received multiple reports of funnel clouds and related storm damage on Friday.

Project officials say they can confirm one twister touched down near the community of Dundurn, citing clear visual evidence from trusted sources.

They say a team will be on the ground Saturday to gather more data and offer updates on any damage.

The Prairies have experienced several days of severe weather and related tornado warnings.

On Wednesday, two tornadoes touched down near Chauvin, Alta., toppling trees, tearing up trailers in a campground and sending three people to hospital.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 11, 2026.
