Felly sgrifennodd Simon Wyndham :
Well, on the scale of things it was weak. The word 'mini' implies that
it is small. As anyone who knows anything about these things knows, some
powerful tornadoes can be very thin. So if people want to use the word
mini, fine. But it doesn't relate to anything meaningful. Much like the
stupidity of most modern news reporters using the word 'enormity' for
the wrong reasons.

Rob McElwee (R4, 12:57 today) used the word "small".
