Tornado causes considerable damage in Noord-Holland
A tornado which tore across the far north of Noord-Holland province during Monday’s storms caused considerable damage to four homes in Wieringerwerf, website Nu.nl reports.
One farm was completely destroyed by the tornado but no one was hurt, Nu.nl says.
The heavy rain caused localised flooding in some areas, including Amsterdam, and led to the A9 and A200 motorways grinding to a halt for a time.
