Tornado warnings were issued Sunday morning as a series of severe thunderstorms moved through parts of southern Manitoba.
People in Altona say as many as three twisters hit in and around their town, which is southwest of Winnipeg near the North Dakota border.
Other tornadoes were spotted in Gretna and Grunthal, Environment Canada reported.
Meteorologist Mike Russo says heavy thunderstorms have hit the areas of Morden and Gretna, bringing wind speeds in excess of 100 kilometres per hour.
Wind gusts as high as 140 kilometres per hour and power outages were reported in Gretna.
Russo says the system was moving quite quickly and was expected to move eastwards and out of the area by around noon.
