Tornado warnings were issued for parts of the province Saturday.
Radar indicated a potential tornado moved southeast at 40 km/h near Roseisle, Rosebank, and Miami, Manitoba.
RM of Dufferin Reeve George Gray tells 680 CJOB he didn’t see the reported tornado, but he spoke to some people who did.
“I talked to two residents of the area that did confirm they spotted a funnel cloud. How large and the scope of it, I really don’t know,” says Gray.
Gray says there was devastating damage, especially to farmers fields.
“It looks like someone mowed the fields. It’s devastating at the moment. There’s also a lot of roof and side wall damage to homes,” says Gray.
Tennis ball sized hail was also reported near Roseisle.
All the warnings ended just after 3:30 p.m.
Environment Canada has yet to confirm if a tornado did touch down near Roseisle.
