    Hi,we was heading from the allotment earlier and i spotted the makings of a tornado in the distance,we got in the car and went tornado chasing:yahoo: the longer way home(4 mins) to see if we could get a better photo,when we got near to where it should of still been there is a wind turbine,could there be a connection as it was low cloud or just coincidence:dunno:
    Sorry not the best photo but only phones with us..

      Cool :)

      Probably just coincidence, wind turbine is nothing to a big weather system like that.

                No, will go and have a read up :)
                No idea when it started forming but it took us about 3 mins to get to Hilcote from newton to try and get a better view,by the time we had drove round the last bend it had finished.. and there was the wind turbine below the the area,so with no wind or heavy rain etc i got me wondering could there be a connection to the turbine,ive googled but no queries on the subject that i can find.
