Chris Cantell Discusses UK News: Tornadoes scared England
by Nina Gotzmannova


On Monday saw the residents of central and southern England something they would never expect to come near their homes. A tornado. This unusual weather phenomenon ripped off several roofs, torn off branches from trees and in people of two British towns, Nuneaton and Farnborough, left an unforgettable feeling of something strange. A series of tornadoes arises during a big storm and destroyed everything on its way. Eyewitnesses said that the whole incident lasted only couple of minutes, but ripped off the roofs on more than 10 houses. Fortunately no one was injured. It wasn't the first incident in England this year. According to Tornado and Storm Research Organisation (TORRO) there have been nine more accidents across the country, which may be tornadoes. They were witnessed for example in Warwickshire or Northamptonshire. Last year in December the residential area of northwestern London was hit by a tornado. Six people were injured and more than 100 houses were damaged. A tornado is a fast rotating column of air, which touches a cloud on one side and earth on the other. It usually has a shape like a column or a tube. Usually they occur in United States, but sometimes in Canada, Asia, Africa and Europe too. In England are tornadoes quite rare, according to TORRO there is about 33 tornadoes each year. Even though in England is the highest number of reported tornadoes per unit area in the world. The reason is that there live more people in a relatively small area and, of course, they pay more attention to the weather.
