Apparently, the most common place for tornadoes is the UK. They aren't very big, though some can do damage. Most don't. I've never seen one, though I have seen a few possible funnel clouds not reaching the ground during a storm in Devon, where one was reported where I wasn't. I have also seen a waterspout off Dover.

Given the difference in scale, energy and damage, to pop up and claim more than America seems a bit thoughtless and pathetic.

Skarpi's is the sort we get, and since we get to share the jet stream at various times, it doesn't surprise me.
