A tornado spread across some of the South yesterday after a special type of storm. More thunder and lightning is expected today after a "supercell" storm also brought rain and large hailstones. It started in Wiltshire and moved across Oxfordshire - where a tornado was reportedly seen in several places including Bicester, Eynsham and Kidlington.

The air in supercell storms is spinning or rotating, unlike in normal storms. Richard Glazer drove through the tornado with his wife and son on the A34 near Kidlington, Oxfordshire.
