What I would do is remove the tire from the wheel.
hold the tire up to the light to determine if those cuts do indeed go all the way through.
put a patch on the inside of the tire to cover those cuts (assuming they go through completely)
reinstall, ride, monitor.

Oh yeah, I would probably buy a new tire now anyways and hold on to it just in case.

if those cuts are big enough your tube will start to push itself out though those holes like a little blister. if that happens you have about 4 seconds to relieve the pressure from your tubes or you're all done BANG!
