PHOTOS: Tornado hits Saskatchewan as severe storms pelt Prairies
Storm spotters witnessed at least one tornado in southern Saskatchewan on Thursday as severe thunderstorms hit the region. A dynamic setup across the south-central Prairies allowed isolated thunderstorms to develop on Thursday. The bulk of the active weather unfolded across Saskatchewan. DON'T MISS: At least three rotating thunderstorms prompted tornado warnings from communities near Saskatoon to rural areas near Estevan. The storm in southeastern Saskatchewan near Estevan produced at least one spotter-confirmed tornado. Multiple chasers in the region caught photos of the twister as it swept through fields, hurling debris through the air along its track. Large hail, gusty winds, and heavy rainfall also accompanied the severe thunderstorms. Experts will likely survey the damage in the days ahead to confirm the number of tornadoes that touched down Thursday and assign damage ratings on the Enhanced Fujita Scale.

PHOTOS: Alberta, Sask., see multiple days of tornado-warned storms
It has been a stormy weekend so far for parts of Alberta and Saskatchewan, with several tornado warnings issued amid favourable conditions on Friday and Saturday. While nothing has been confirmed by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) or the Northern Tornadoes Project (NTP), spotters in Saskatchewan reported at least one tornado north of Saskatoon, in the communities of Hague and Hepburn. SEE ALSO: Saturday's tornado warnings lasted more than three hours. Multiple photos of funnel clouds were posted on social media. The biggest hail report was for stones that were toonie-sized, near Alvena, Sask. The severe weather on June 14 followed Friday's storms, which also produced reports of tornadoes and funnel clouds throughout parts of Alberta and Saskatchewan. The severe thunderstorms during the past two days came courtesy of a low-pressure system that has been swinging across the Prairies, from north to south. The instability in the provinces fuelled the severe storms, which were triggered by the system's front that extended across both provinces. An almost identical storm setup is taking shape on Sunday, with the chance of severe storms confined to the Aberta foothills and nearby areas, as well as in southern Saskatchewan. Below is just a selection of visuals of the severe storms from Saturday evening that have surfaced on social media.
