Jersey looks like a disaster zone after 100mph Storm Ciaràn winds hammer island | UK News

Jersey has been left looking like a disaster zone after a tornado linked with Storm Ciarán ripped thought the island overnight.

A severe thunderstorm, thought to be the worst to hit the island since 1987, tore up trees and caused massive flooding and property damage.

Footage of the aftermath shows cars destroyed, roofs caved in and widespread power outages. Debris can be seen lining the streets and entire areas appear submerged.

Meteorologists previously referred to the storm as aso-called weather bomb, due to its explosive power caused by a particularly rapid fall in pressure.
