I have seen some nice pics of Tornado posted on Facebook today (I think) ..must have been a nice sight heading west  at speed.

I know some of you live near the line - did you see it go past?

Here's my version of it, was hoping to film it coming down the flyover but having 2 kids in tow made me late and this was the best I could manage
