Tornadoes in Brum!!

[Turamber]

Not five minutes from my normal place of work (am actually working in Coventry at present) the place was torn to pieces by multiple tornadoes. Apparently 16mm of rain fell in one hour (which is a lot btw, heh) and the place went so dark it could have been night. Lots of stories about people flying through the air caught in the winds and people being hit by bricks, trees and other flying debris.

They are saying there was just one in Kings Heath, but others (or maybe the same one?) have also been reported in other areas of South Birmingham. Scary stuff.
