Abstract
On 1‐2 November 2023, Storm Ciarán impacted the British Isles, causing widespread wind damage and significant disruption to the Channel Islands and parts of southern England. Three areas within this wider swathe ‐ Jersey (Channel Islands), Loders in Dorset and Sompting/Lancing in West Sussex ‐ suffered additional, more severe, localised wind damage. These areas were investigated by the Tornado and Storm Research Organisation (TORRO). Each of these sites was found to have been affected by a tornado. The most intense of these was in Jersey, where one of the strongest tornadoes in the UK and Channel Islands since 1954 occurred.
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.
