Two people had to be pulled from their car in North Yorkshire and one treated by paramedics after their house collapsed

A freak hailstorm in Bradford has been documented by photos posted on Twitter with contributors expressing their amazement at an ice-covered street in August.

One wrote: "Theres a crazy storm going on in bradford at the moment! Heavy hail and a river running down the road."

Others posted pictures and filmed video of rare funnel clouds in parts of West Yorkshire.

West Yorkshire Fire Service reported a series of flood related call-outs this afternoon after storms swept across the county.

In one incident, in the Frizinghall area of Bradford, firefighters rescued one

person from a property when surging floodwater rushed through a house and " took out an internal wall and surrounding pavements".

In the Mannignham area of the city flats were evacuated after floodwaters rose. Crews were also in action again in the Todmorden area, which was badly affected by flooding earlier this summer.
