There has been a lot in the Press this week about the tornado that hit Stornoway on Tuesday 28th July. Unfortunately I was off the island at the time but as a member of the Tornado & Storm Research Organisation (TORRO) and one of their Site Investigators, I would like to know more about the event to assist in the current research and so that it can be included in the records that TORRO keeps on such events.
If you saw the tornado, witnessed its effects or were effected by it then both TORRO and I would be grateful of any information that you can provide. Any information that you provide will only be used to forward our research into the tornados that occure within the UK and no personal information will be passed to other organisations.
You can contact me via this Blog or by using my Contact form, there is also a Severe Weather Report Form on the TORRO website.
If you witness any severe weather event then TORRO would be happy to hear about it and the same form can be used. If the event is in the Western Isles or the Highlands then please feel free to let me know as well.

ReplyDeleteNo new data as yet and no reports to myself.
ReplyDeleteIt was a tornado and larger than others that have touched down on the island, maybe a T2 or T3 or the Tornado Scale.
