27-year-old Gulpal said he was in his house when the storm hit and said that scenes were: “Like a hand came from the sky and grabbed everything.”

He added that: “There were trampolines flying around, my wall is completely destroyed, the house over the road had its windows smashed in so we all ran to the middle of the house to hide. The insurance guys are coming later so hopefully, everything will be covered.”
