We’ve received several reports of tornadoes with the storms in southern Manitoba yesterday evening.
We are following up. A storm damage survey may be required, but to this point no damage has been reported.
Please send any reports to @ntp-reports.bsky.social or submit info at uwo.ca/ntp. #MBstorm
Example of an NTP survey summary map from 2024
The final versions of all NTP 2024 Survey Summary Maps are now available. They are a great way to see damage survey investigation results, including the survey source data.
The maps are available via the NTP Open Data Portal at uwo.ca/ntp and through the NTP Dashboard at uwo.ca/ntp/dashboard.
So, Env Canada is looking to discontinue #FOCN45, Significant Weather Discussion, issued by the Prairie & Arctic Storm Prediction Centre.
Perhaps if the disc was available on weather.gc.ca rather than random US wx pages it would get used more!
