the 16th November storm I had just turned 16 was working at a servo opposite Big W Kuraby , people were running into each other motorbikes all over the road from The Waywa corner motorbike shop and I got locked out tyre racks were up in the air and a large drinks fridge ended up on the roof of the Mobil .... I had a bad head cut as something had hit me when I ran to the toilets for cover it just came from no where .....

I was 10 years old, but remember this well, living at Moorooka. My mother had trouble closing the back door, due to the wind. It missed our house by 500 metres. No damage, but up the road was a different story! Tooheys Forest had a small strip where you could see the tornado went through... Thanks for the memory.

@jessical12345678910 - I doubt your dad is an authority on severe weather in Australia. This event was widely reported in the papers and TV news at the time. Problem is, it was probably referred to as a "mini-tornado", by copy-writers that also were of the belief that "tornados don't happen in Australia".
