Rain or Shine...

A MINI-TORNADO toppled trees and a chimney yesterday, blocking roads in East Sussex. Police worked with the Highways Agency to clear wreckage from roads around Battle and Sedlescombe.

There were no reports of injuries, but police took 20 calls about damage, which included items from a garden centre scattered across a road. Trees blocked the A121 and the B224 at Sedlescombe, the A271 at Battle and the A2100 at Telham.
