Freak Tornado Hits London Early this Morning

Six people were injuried and several homes and cars destroyed after a freak tornado ripped through the streets of London early Thursday morning. Great Britain experiences about 30 to 40 tornadoes a year and they are usually weak. But the one early this morning created wind gusts near 115 to 136 MPH, considered to be an F2 on the Fujita Scale. Check out the New York Times for more information.
