==DISCUSSION==
CONDITIONS WILL BE FAVOURABLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FUNNEL CLOUDS
TODAY.
CONDITIONS ARE FAVOURABLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FUNNEL CLOUDS EARLY
THIS EVENING. SOME OF THESE FUNNELS MAY TEMPORARILY TOUCH THE
GROUND.
CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE LATER THIS EVENING.
THESE TYPES OF FUNNEL CLOUDS ARE GENERATED BY WEAK ROTATION UNDER
RAPIDLY GROWING CLOUDS OR WEAK THUNDERSTORMS. THIS WEAK ROTATION IS
NORMALLY NOT A DANGER NEAR THE GROUND. HOWEVER, THERE IS A CHANCE
THAT THIS ROTATION COULD INTENSIFY AND BECOME A WEAK LANDSPOUT
TORNADO.
IF CONDITIONS BECOME MORE FAVOURABLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
LANDSPOUT TORNADOES, WATCHES AND WARNINGS WILL BE ISSUED BY
ENVIRONMENT CANADA.
LANDSPOUT TORNADOES DO NOT USUALLY CAUSE SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE BUT CAN
STILL BE DANGEROUS. THEY CAN BE STRONG ENOUGH TO TOPPLE TREES,
DAMAGE ROOFS OR TOSS DEBRIS SHORT DISTANCES.
TREAT ANY FUNNEL CLOUD SIGHTING SERIOUSLY. SHOULD A FUNNEL CLOUD
DEVELOP NEARBY, PREPARE TO TAKE SHELTER. THESE FUNNEL CLOUDS USUALLY
APPEAR WITH LITTLE OR NO WARNING.
PLEASE CONTINUE TO MONITOR ALERTS AND FORECASTS ISSUED BY
ENVIRONMENT CANADA. TO REPORT SEVERE WEATHER, SEND AN EMAIL TO
ABSTORM(AT)EC.GC.CA, CALL 1-800-239-0484 OR POST REPORTS ON X USING
