11-28-12 - "A tornado was seen, pointed at the industrial port of Taranto, that lifted considerable material from the ground." "There have been a number of tornadoes in unusual parts of the world in the last couple of months," AccuWeather Enterprise Solution Senior Vice President Mike Smith said. "That is partly because there are no tornadoes occurring here [in the United States]. Because we have unusual high pressure over the U.S., there is low pressure in unusual areas on other parts of the hemisphere." http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/tornado-italy/2092115
