UPDATE: Tornado watch lifted for Fox Creek

As of 9 p.m., the tornado watch for portions of the MD of Greenview, including near Fox Creek, has been dropped.

A Tornado watch has been issued for an area of the MD of Greenview, including close to Fox Creek.

While there isn’t any imminent danger, Environment Canada says a line of thunderstorms heading for the area are creating favourable conditions that could produce tornados, as well as hail, heavy rain and potentially strong straight line winds, with the biggest risk between 5 and 8 p.m. tonight.

Despite the threat of a tornado not being imminent, this is a dangerous and potentially life-threatening situation. Be prepared for severe weather and take cover immediately, if threatening weather approaches.
