A tornado was confirmed to have touched down near Pelly, Sask., on Sunday as the province saw stormy conditions during the day, Environment Canada confirmed.
The agency said information on damage and the category of the tornado is not known at this time, but it is working with the Northern Tornadoes Project to determine those details.
The London, Ont.-based organization at Western University will send out a team to the region to analyze damage in the area and Environment Canada says it will provide further details once available.
