Did a mini-tornado hit part of the town of Vaux-sur-Sûre overnight from Monday to Tuesday? In any case, this is what some citizens think in view of the damage caused by the violent storms that occurred between 3 and 4 am.

The first thing some residents do when they get out of bed is to see the damage that night, whether in their garden or in their village. Rue de Marche, in the village of Vaux, for example, on the Rosières side as well as in the Fagne Wéry, many trees were uprooted by the wind and found themselves lying on the roadway or outside.

It was the local farmers who mobilized and cleared the many branches using their manitou. On leaving the village of Vaux, a hangar suffered. Mayor Yves Besseling also specifies that the municipal services intervened on the road between the recyparc and the village of Rosières. Impressive images, especially when you remember the lightning and gusts that blew strongly a few hours earlier, which had already awakened many residents.

Within firefighters, there is no question of using the term tornado, but rather a strong localized gale. This is not the only place affected since trees have fallen due to the wind in all four corners of the province.
