Took me ages to get home from work today as the road was shut.
Found out why a bit later

Ouch

they do seem to be hitting the south of the uk every year now

saw a twister 19 years ago in florida which was a little scary & the noise from the wind was unreal luckily we were ok where we were stopping but sadly the same couldn't be said about the houses a mile down the road

Saw it on the news, looks terrible

Only a broken parasol and a few bits of rubbish around the garden.
The bottom of the street is a different story.
The wife was at home and she said the wind just came out of nowhere and lasted about 15 mins then stopped quite quickly.
