Experts say a 'significant tornado' hit Jersey when Storm Ciarán passed through the island - likely the biggest seen in the British Isles for nearly 70 years.
TORRO - the Tornado and Storm Research Organisation - says the destructive vortex was likely the strongest to hit any part of the British Isles since 1954 - nearly seven decades ago.- with TORRO now concluding that "an intense tornado made landfall at St Clement" and "exited Jersey around Fliquet".Islanders warned about risks of scams following Storm Ciarán
TORRO believes the Storm Ciarán tornado is "likely the strongest" seen in the UK, Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man since a tornado hit West London on Wednesday 8 December 1954. It was "easily the strongest on record for the Channel Islands", with the only other recorded instance of a tornado over St John in 1981 which was half the strength.Want to find out more about the stories making the headlines?
