More tornadoes have been confirmed to have hit western Manitoba in June, according to the Northern Tornadoes Project.

The organization confirmed Friday that a total of three tornadoes formed during the same supercell storm that generated an EF3 tornado in the Rossburn area on June 28. The tornadoes were confirmed through satellite imagery.

The first tornado started at 8:40 p.m. near Little Menzie Lake and was given an EF1 rating. A post from the Northern Tornadoes Project said tree damage was reported in Riding Mountain National Park, and a damage path was seen going through the forest. The estimated maximum wind speed was 145 km/h.

The second tornado formed near Roynick Lake in Riding Mountain National Park at 8:52 p.m. and was given a rating of EF2. The tornado was estimated to have a maximum wind speed of 190 km/h.

The two new confirmations bring the total number of tornadoes in June to 10, including one in Winnipeg’s Whyte Ridge neighbourhood that was rated EF1.
