Tornado in Paris

A rare tornado in a northeast suburb of Paris has led to the death of one person and nearly a dozen other people were sent to hospital with injuries.

The tornado is being rated an EF-2 with wind speeds over 200 km/h.

The wind toppled contruction cranes, damaged properties and uprooted trees.

It was part of a cluster of severe storms that may also have spawned another tornado near Amsterdam.

Hundreds displaced in Alaska

About 1,500 have been displaced after hurricane-strength wind and record flooding in coastal Alaska.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong destroyed at 90 per cent of structures in affected communites, snapped utility poles and washed away many roads.

Some houses floated off their foundations and residents in one town report seeing unearthed coffins piled up at the end of the airport runway after the floodwaters receded.

Tropical Storm Fengshen hits Phillipines

Eight people are dead and 27,000 been evacuated after Tropical Storm Fengshen hit the Philippines.

Torrential rain and massive storm surge caused significant flood damage on the island of Luzon.
