A mini tornado hit the village of Bihucourt near the northern France port of Calais on Sunday, as the country braced for a wave of storms after a spell of unseasonally warm weather, Trend reports citing Reuters.
Video footage posted on YouTube and social media showed a huge black cloud swirling up in the form of a tornado above the skies of Bihucourt.
The local authority for the Pas-de-Calais region said one person had suffered light injuries, and that the tornado had caused extensive damage to some homes and infrastructure in the area.
