Rare moment tornado sweeps through Oregon
Description
A 'rotating funnel cloud' was spotted swirling through Oregon on Saturday evening (June 13).
Local man Mike Bodd captured rare footage of the weather event from Happy Valley.
Forecasters said the tornado formed at about 6:30 p.m. east of Happy Valley and caused minor destruction, including toppled trees and damaged roofs.
