Conditions are favourable for the development of severe thunderstorms that may be capable of producing strong wind gusts, large hail and heavy rain.

An approaching trough of low pressure continues to support scattered strong to severe thunderstorms over southeastern Manitoba this afternoon.

Hazards:
- Up to 90 km/h wind gusts.
- Up to 3 cm hail.
- Heavy downpours.
- Isolated tornado.

Timing:
Afternoon into early evening.

Be prepared for severe weather. If threatening weather approaches, take cover in a basement or interior room. If outside, protect yourself from flying debris and hail. When thunder roars, go indoors! Lightning kills and injures Canadians every year.

Heavy rain can cause flash flooding and significant reductions to visibility. Strong wind gusts can damage trees, buildings and overturn vehicles. Large hail can cause significant damage and injury. Severe thunderstorm watches are issued when conditions are favourable for the development of thunderstorms capable of producing damaging hail, wind or rain.
