    Tornado in Auckland NZ, 1 dead, many injuries

    I was surprised - I shouldn't have been, anywhere can have tornadoes, as I learnt when I worked in EM - to see this on my web peregrinations this morning

    NZ gets tornadoes from time to time. There was a pretty bad one in Greymouth about 4 years ago that caused a lot of damage, though luckily no deaths.

    More usual in the North Island though, so Auckland getting one is probably not all that surprising.

    Haven't the poor Kiwis had a bad trot so far this year.
    I feel very sorry for them with the earthquakes in the south and now tornados in the north.

    It'll all be forgotten when they win the Rugby World Cup, though.
    All my photos are taken with recycled pixels.
    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom, is knowing not to serve it in a fruit salad.
