Abstract:The Selsey tornado of January 1998 was much reported in the media. There were also conflicting accounts of the amount of damage and financial loss. I was able to visit Selsey on a number of occasions to undertake site investigations, and was fortunate to meet Professor Michael Baker to compare our findings. This paper is a comprhensive damage study put togather on the evidence of several complementary sources.
