-There were four people in the neighboring house when it was lifted up.
It was reminiscent of a scene in the fairy tale The Wizard of Oz.
The house is angry.
A woman who was in the house is now in intensive care, the witness Vasilisa tells Ria Novisti.
The tornado occurred in the county of Tver in connection with a thunderstorm where it stormed with wind speeds of 25 meters per second.
-It is not so unusual with tornadoes in those areas.
They can occur up to a hundred times a year.
However, it rarely happens that the weather phenomenon affects residential areas, says meteorologist Nikita Popovnin to the TV channel Dozjd.
In several residential areas, where a total of about 2,300 people live, the power has been partially cut off. In the city of Andreapol, the storm has destroyed 65 villas, reports the news agency Tass. In the community of Kartunj, electric poles have been felled and 18 of the village's 20 houses have been destroyed.
