Monday, May 30, 2022, 11:53 pm – After a stormy Monday night for parts of northwestern Ontario, causing tornado and hour warnings, the threat will reappear on Tuesday, but will push further east into the countryside . Meanwhile, southern Manitoba will continue to cope with prolonged, unwanted torrential rain and stormy winds.
The week kicked off in parts of the eastern prairies, with tornado warnings and clocks issued in northwestern Ontario on Monday night as a series of severe storms hit the state. The warnings have been lifted, but the clocks remain in effect as storms continue to break. However, as night falls, the clocks will be raised as the storms subside and the threat subsides. Then on Tuesday, the probability of a storm will move further east to northern Ontario, while southern Manitoba copes with more rain and strong winds. More on what to expect on Tuesday and then below.
CURRENT TORNADO WATCHES
- Ignatius-English River
- Atikokan-Shebandovan-Ketiko Park
- Uppsala-Wright
- Village on the river Seine – center of the mines
11:35 pm (EDT) – Conditions are favorable for the development of strong thunderstorms that can cause tornadoes. Strong winds, hail and heavy rain are also possible.
A series of dangerous thunderstorms moving through the area may be able to create short, fast-moving tornadoes. Any tornadoes that form are likely to be enveloped in rain, making them difficult to see.
This is a dangerous and potentially life-threatening situation.
Be prepared for hard times. Take cover immediately if threatening time approaches.
This is a dangerous and potentially life-threatening situation.
A tornado clock does not mean that a tornado has been spotted, but it is issued when weather conditions are favorable for the development of thunderstorms that can cause a tornado.
Residents are advised to closely monitor the forecast and prepare immediately to take shelter if and when severe weather strikes.
MANITOBA: WARNING WARNING WARNINGS IN HEAVY RAIN
Strongly low levels in Colorado will bring more rain in much of southern Manitoba on Tuesday. Several more are expected before the system finally leaves on Tuesday night.
Special weather forecasts, precipitation and wind warnings cover the region, warning of significant rainfall expected by Tuesday. Total rainfall of 20-40 mm is expected, although pockets of 40-60 mm are possible along the border of Manitoba and northwestern Ontario, locally higher amounts in thunderstorms. Heavy rainfall with locally higher total rainfall is possible.
“Heavy rainfall can cause sudden flooding and water accumulation on the roads,” said Canada’s Special Meteorological Declaration on Environment and Climate Change (ECCC). “Watch out for possible leaching near rivers, streams and gutters.”
This will lead to a more serious delay in spring planting, which is already several weeks behind. May 31 is a critical deadline for many farmers to decide whether to try to move forward with the season or cash out crop insurance.
A land flood warning has been issued for the southeast corner of Manitoba, according to a provincial flood bulletin on Sunday.

According to the bulletin, water levels in lakes and streams are already high and soils are saturated with water, so rain that will hit the province by Tuesday could lead to land floods.
Wind warnings are in effect in western Manitoba, with gusts of 60-80 km / h expected by Tuesday. Winds will subside on Tuesday night as low levels move to northwestern Ontario.
“Damage to buildings, such as tiles and windows, can occur,” the ECCC warning said. “Loose objects can be blown away by the wind and cause injury or damage. Strong winds can cause power outages and fallen tree branches.”
Winds can also cause shoreline water levels to rise, adding to temporary increases in Lake Winnipeg, Lake Manitoba, Lake Winnipegosis and Lake Dauphin.
NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO: STORM FRAGRANCES REDUCED AND SHIFTED EAST
In northern Ontario, an extended limit of active weather remains, bringing rain and thunderstorms for Tuesday.
Much of northern Ontario will be threatened by thunderstorms on Tuesday, with communities north and east of Lake Superior looking the most favorable place for tough weather as the cold front passes through hot and humid air masses.
The northwestern sections can still see minor storms, but most of the heavy potential will shift north and east of Lake Superior.
