Florida tornadoes
Glad I packed my suntan lotion! Mother nature kindly sent a string of tornadoes across the middle of the state causing a 40-mile swath of destruction terrorising residents of one of the nation's biggest retirement communities early this morning killing 19 people. (more)
Once again the cyclical global weather phenomenon El Nino was blamed, fuelling the power of the tornadoes starting out in the ocean and driving them onto land at upto 165mph. About 100 miles south-east of the destruction I spent the day keeping out of heavy rain and shivering in my shorts! Lucky then I brought both my Charlton and Chicago Bears tops for a bit of warmth. ¶ 01:12
