KEY POINTS:
Two barns were destroyed by a twister that ripped through the Taranaki settlement of Inglewood this morning.
Linda Brown, on Everett Rd, said her family watched in terror from their house as the tornado formed in the sky, the Taranaki Daily News reported.
It first hit their hay shed, spreading the wreckage over their house and then crossed the road taking out another shed.
A series of twisters struck Taranaki at this time last year, leaving millions of dollars worth of damage in New Plymouth and surrounding settlements.
