Mini tornado wreaks havoc on isleA number of cars and homes have been damaged by a mini tornado which hit the Isle of Lewis.The twister, in Stornoway, flipped one car upside down, narrowly missing the fuel depot near the ferry terminal. Slates, ridging and iron-work were also ripped off some houses following the weather phenomenon which happened just after 2200 BST on Tuesday. Lightning also caused power to be lost across the town after residents reported hearing a 10-second blast. The Met Office said the tornado was a localised occurrence caused by low pressure.
