More USA tornadoes...

Yesterday saw 65 tornadoes "rip" through several US states. The picture below shows what one of the storms did to an electricity pylon in Oklahoma City.

Clicking on the picture will take you to the Newsround website where there are other photographs of some of the tornadoes and the damage they caused.

We'll weather the weather whatever the weather...

You can't have missed the many reports in the news in the last couple of weeks about the weird weather, and if you've been outside, you will probably have noticed the wind and rain...

Newsround have a project going on at the moment where they are asking people to send in photographs of the weather where they live...

So, get out there with your camera, and send them some pictures! More details here...

Whilst we're talking about the weather, you'll recall my post about the ice storms in the US the other day... Well, the picture shows another of the effects of this cold weather - click on the picture for the full story.


The BBC also has a story today about Britain being "braced for heavy storms"... Oh dear!
