Hi Katie, I only discovered this thread on the day I posted a reply and haven't yet read all posts, but what I have read is really great. Hope it continues.

Yes, Perth did cop a tornado a couple of weeks back. The area that was hit is about 40 kilometres south of Perth and seems to be particularly vulnerable, almost like a mini tornado alley. One guy who lost his roof in a tornado a couple of years back lost it again in the recent one. My Dad's house is right on the coast at Bunbury, close on 200km south of Perth and he scored a direct hit in May 2005. I'll attach an image of his house the day after. However, the tornados here are nothing like the ferocious monsters that wreak such havoc across the American mid-west.
