    Kind of annoying the way every Irish media outlet is just describing this as "severe winds" and "black clouds!" when infact it was an actual tornado.

    Whereas if there was a tiny funnel cloud they would be all over it having heart attacks and screaming about MINI TWISTERS!

    The hell is the "black cloud" thing about anyway. Makes it sound as if it was some poxy magical event or something.

    Don't be too frustrated at the media treatment. They may have ben stung over feedback they received from recent events and are being very careful. The final assessment will eventually enter the appropriate databases where it will be a tornado, and nothing else. It will take a little time to gather up all the information that can be gathered up to get the full picture, including important local eyewitness accounts. So - keep the faith!!

    Mini tornado, mini twisters, ominous black clouds, funnel winds... all words I am sure people, including myself are already regretting mentioning, even if it was only in jest! :(
