The bizarre weather that resulted in torrential rainfall across the country and flooding in Cork, Tipperary and Limerick also caused an apparent mini-tornado in Waterford. Residents of Stradbally in Co Waterford are adamant they suffered a mini-tornado as an powerful Atlantic weather front swept in. Val Malone Grant, who lives in the Stradballymore estate, was awoken by the sound of breaking glass. Incredibly the mini-tornado was so localised that other parts of west Waterford didn't experience anything remotely like it.
