Mini tornado hits north London

minitornado.jpgHard to believe this is a street in Kensal Rise. A twister left a trail of destruction this morning, ripping the rooves of cars, smashing windows and injuring six people. On the BBC website, local resident Daniel Bidgood explained what his experience:

I was in my living room and I heard a big crack of lightning and thunder, then as I went to the window I heard a sound which was like standing behind a jetliner. I could see a huge cloud rolling up the street, making this tremendous sound. I went to try to take a picture of it but a shower of debris smashed all the windows of my house.
