According to news reports, a tornado has caused serious damage this
evening in the village of Manray in the Belgian province of Luxembourg

The local fire service and the mayor said that 30 to 40 houses have been
damaged: several have had their roofs ripped off, and windows have been
blown out in a number of houses. There was said to be "an enormous
amount of damage" but no-one has been reported hurt.
