There was a tornado in Suffolk and it looked amazing

[Jazzy]

"Dramatic pictures showing a tornado in Suffolk last night have emerged.


Among the people to spot the mysterious goings on in the sky was chef Phil Hannam, who works in the village of Thorpeness.

He works at The Kitchen @ Thorpeness, where drinkers and colleagues were shocked to see what was happening.

His manager, Amy Youngs said: ‘It was muggy and stormy yesterday and we had all sorts of weather, but we’ve never seen a tornado over Suffolk before.

Meterologist Steven Keates from the Met Office told metro.co.uk that he was not initially convinced, but said: ‘I’ve now admitted defeat on this one.

He said because the dramatic scene happened over the sea, it was a water spout, but said: ‘If it touched down on land it would be a tornado.’"

It's about 170 miles from where I am.
I do however remember the 2006 Tornado over parts of Birmingham.
That left a right mess.
We're not used to this sort of weather.

I'm amused looking at the people in the first picture just sitting there calmly. Me, I would have been running the heck out of there!

That is very cool but if I were those people in the first picture I sure as hell wouldn't just be sitting there...

Google tells me I am 176 miles away by car.
You've got to love us Brits we certainly have our priorities straight. Given the choice of viewing a tornado or drinking we turn our backs and hold our pints tighter so we don't spill a drop.
