“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.”
A tornado watch is in effect for Central Saskatchewan including Saskatoon and Prince Albert.
