Default Tornado in Belgium

At around 15.00 local time today the village of Le Roeulx - between Mons
and La Louvière in southern Belgium - was hit by a tornado.

Several house roofs were badly damaged - the roof and ceilings were sucked
out of one house. Windows were also broken and a large tree felled.
No-one was hurt.
