Fook, 5 hour run tomorrow. Misery on misery.

Twitter has quite a few shots of the funnels. Some under @SeanBattySTV

You'd better be careful. If it sucks you up and transports you to Oz you'll be out of work. They already have a scarecrow.

It's scary in Birmingham!

It was scary today as it looked like touching down and seemed like less than a mile away, it really was amazing to see though.
