  1. Warm and sunny start in Oxford area, cloud cover increasing, light rain for a few minutes.
  2. Well, quite a day yesterday, while sitting on the M40 with a broken down coach there was a storm in the London area dropping some nice bolts of CG. I was at Junction 2 and the storm looked to be down near Hillingdon area, also all our coaches are fitted with radios so we can talk to each other and there was reports of flooding down at Park Royal and Hanger Lane underpass was closed due to flooding. Another storm in Oxford last night about nine o`clock, passed straight over the Cowley area nice lightning and torrential rain.

  6. Hi Folks, i`ve just found this on the BBC website, did anyone see it? Clean up after tornado hits town. A mini tornado has left residents clearing up debris after it struck on Monday evening in Lincolnshire. People watched as the twister tore off roof tiles and picked up and carried rubbish across the Sleaford area. Eyewitness Paul Golthorpe, from Finch Hatton Close in Ruskington, said he had never heard the wind make such an horrendous sound. A trampoline was also seen by some eyewitnesses flying down the street after it was picked up by the tornado. Perfect conditions Mr Golthorpe said at first he had no idea what was causing the noise outside. "We thought it was some low-flying jets but then the house started to shake a bit and I looked out of the window and saw lots of debris in the road," he said. BBC weather presenter Jim Gould said the tornado was small-scale but significant. "On Monday night the air destabilised and heavy showers developed with a large quantity of air in vertical motion. "Some of the air was moving upwards and some downwards at which point various physical forces take over and adds a certain amount of spin - creating the rotational characteristics that were seen in Ruskington."
