An emergency alert issued through SaskAlert will:

• and advise you when the incident is over.
Alerts can be issued by Government of Saskatchewan ministries, Crown corporations, agencies, local governing bodies, and Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC).
Provincial ministries, Crown corporations, and local authorities issue alerts for emergencies within their areas of responsibility that may impact life and safety. Policing agencies issue alerts to warn the public of imminent potential risks to their safety, child abductions, and critical incidents.
ECCC provides alerts for severe weather events, including:
• Tornado watches and warnings
• Warnings for blizzards, blowing snow, dust storms, extreme cold, freezing drizzle, freezing rain, heat, rainfall, severe thunderstorms, snowfall, high winds, and winter storms
• Minor updates and fixes for an improved experience
