On Radio 5 Breakfast programme this morning, they had someone on who'd
experienced the tornado. He said the wind had started NE and then switched
to SW.

Hi, Graham,

The wind directions you mention are similar to the Copley event as I
reported yesterday. The wind direction at 2000ft remained NE'ly even
though there was a F5 W'ly blowing at the surface.
