Apparantly we get quite a few in Britain, but most of them are tiddlers.

I hope everyone goes out for a curry there tonight. Or the tornadoes will have won.

Ph34r nature!

Looks like it did quite some damage.
God that must suck. Poor people. You come home from work and all you want to do is put your feet up, yet all you get to do is shovel debris away or try to fix your half disappeared roof.

Goddammit Mal!

You nicked my completely useless fact!

I want it back.

Anyway I was around the area (not in the eye of the storm), but it rained incredibly hard and went really dark.

Some guy who filmed it on his mobile also got to swear on the news :D

I am glad nobody got killed, although some were badly injured I hear.
It also makes my reaction of 'Wow that's totally cool' feel less ghoulish.

I remember it happening a few years ago. Seem to remember they said it was rare, but not unheard of.
