Abstract
A powerful tornado affected eastern parts of Jersey, Channel Islands, on the night of Wednesday 1 and Thursday 2 November 2023, associated with a supercell thunderstorm. As well as spawning the tornado, the parent thunderstorm also produced a severe hailstorm, with hailstones upwards of 5cm in diameter documented. A TORRO site investigation, assisted by staff from Jersey Met, concluded that the tornado produced a continuous damage path across the east of the island of around 8km in length, with a width of up to 500m. The tornado was assigned a provisional rating of T6 on the International Tornado Intensity Scale.
期刊介绍：
The aim of Weather is to act as a bridge between the interests of those having a professional and a general interest in the weather, as well as between meteorologists and others working in related sciences such as climatology, hydrology and geography.
Articles and regular features are written for a wide range of readers, from professional meteorologists to amateur weather observers. While technical language and mathematical content are kept to a minimum, Weather also seeks to inform and to give readers an opportunity to update their subject knowledge.
Weather is also the ''house journal'' of the Society and seeks to keep the reader up-to-date with Society news and includes meeting and conference reports, a Readers'' Forum series and occasional Viewpoint articles. Photographs of weather events are an important feature of the journal and the Weather Image feature provides an opportunity to analyse a satellite image or photograph. Weather Log is a summary of the weather of each month by means of meteorological data and weather maps.
