Even the weather is worse

Up to 11 tornadoes struck the UK today, ripping off roofs and flattening trees as widespread heavy rain led to long delays for rail commuters.

Twisters were reported in Farnborough, Luton, Nuneaton, Breaston, in Derbyshire, and Eye, in Cambridgeshire.

Other freak storms in Northampton, Nottingham, Scunthorpe, Whittlesey, in Cambridgeshire, Long Eaton, in Derbyshire, and Ollerton, in Nottinghamshire, could later be confirmed as tornadoes.
