Raw Vid - Tornado rips through Aussie farm
Admin | March 3, 2010
Tornadoes are not uncommon in southwestern Australia. They are reported most frequently from the coastal strip south from Perth to Cape Leeuwin, and from the adjacent inland, especially in the cooler months. Early on 6 April 1960, a particularly violent tornado formed on a trough line ahead of a major cold front and swept through jarrah forest near Collie, cutting a path 32km long and 240 metres wide. Trees more than a metre in diameter were uprooted, and many smaller ones were snapped off about 1.5 to 3 metres above the ground. Rated at F2 on the Fujita scale, the storm would have inflicted great damage had it passed through a major town. Many lesser tornadoes have in fact affected population centres in the region, and while casualties have been few, many homes have been severely damaged or destroyed. A similar tornado in northwest Tasmania left a swathe of snapped trees in forest country near Smithton early on 22 November 1992.
