Photos of a man mows lawn with tornado behind created webstorm

A photograph of a man cutting the lawn in Canada with a tornado that swirls behind him created a storm in social media.

Cecilia Wessels took the picture of his husband Theunis on Friday when the tornado swirled past their home in Three Hills north of Calgary, Alberta.

 The lawnmower was on the husband’s task list, and when he started the mower, the wife in the house took a small stretch.

 Wessels explained that she was awakened by the daughter who was worried because she saw something resembling a tornado in the sky, but her father would not come indoors.

 “I asked him if he would not come in with while tornado was out there, but he answered calmly no,” said Cecilia Wessel on Sunday.

 Theunis Wessels himself said that the tornado was really far further away than what appears in the picture and that it was moving away from them. But he added that he kept an eye on the swirling tornado.
