Jan and I were staying with friends on the border of Peacehaven and Telscombe. I was awaked to the most incredible wailing whistling noise, increasing in volume, then dying out almost immediately but followed by an absolute deluge of water.

It wasn't til we turned the TV onto the local news later in the day that we saw pictures of the tornado, (water-spout), coming in from the Channel and working its way along the cliff top before fizzling out before reaching Newhaven.
Wow I was actually in Sussex on Sunday morning - staying in Horsham... the weather wasn't great but I didn't notice a tornado...

Could your friends have been the ones that brewed up the tornado?

Apparently, as soon as it made land over Telscombe Cliffs, it rapidly fizzled out.
