"Residents assess the damage after a tornado damaged 150 houses in the
district of Tembalang in Semarang, Central Java late on Saturday afternoon.
Three people were injured and at least five of the houses in the
Sendangguwo and Tandang neighborhoods were destroyed, while many others
were seriously damaged as the tornado ripped off their roofs.
"I saw this black wind coming and becoming pointed into a funnel. It
suddenly approached and hit my house," he said.
The disaster also destroyed the walls of four neighboring houses. Many
other homes in the area lost their roofs and residents and neighbors had
started rebuilding on Sunday.
Tembalang district head Dayat said the tornado also damaged a small mosque
and felled power lines and about 50 trees. His office was still collecting
data on the damage, he said. Villagers said the tornado was the worst to
hit the district in living memory. "
