Wind in one American town was so strong this weekend it flipped a car on to its roof.
The incident in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, was caught on security camera footage and released by police who said it was a “possible tornado."
Today at approximately 2:00 pm, on the 100 block of Gaither Drive a possible tornado was reported! A parked vehicle flipped over and additional damage to a roof and air conditioning unit was confirmed. Most importantly no one was hurt. No residential areas are affected at this time. The National Weather Service is investigating.
