Severe weather threat rebuilds Sunday with high instability
Beware a risk for additional severe thunderstorms heading into both Sunday and Monday
A stormy Saturday across portions of the Prairies served as a prelude to additional rounds of severe weather expected on Sunday and Monday.
The threat will shift a bit east each day, with the severe storm threat including both Manitoba and northwestern Ontario.
Stay aware of severe weather watches and warnings in your area, especially if you have outdoor plans over the next couple of days.

Additional severe weather expected through Monday
Saturday evening’s severe thunderstorms will organize into a line that moves east over the southern Prairies during the overnight hours.
This line will attempt to survive the night and eventually reach Winnipeg, potentially bringing the city an early wakeup call on Sunday morning.
Significant instability will rebuild heading into daytime heating on Sunday, setting the stage for a renewed threat for severe thunderstorms. Sunday’s strongest storms could produce strong wind gusts, large hail, and heavy rainfall.
Monday’s risk for severe weather will shift east into northwestern Ontario, where models suggest we could see high to extreme levels of thunderstorm energy. If it plays out as models suggest, this setup could produce damaging winds, large hail, and even rotating storms.
