A tornado destroyed 100 homes and sparked evacuations as Storm Gerrit triggered chaos across Britain.
A "supercell thunderstorm" crossed Greater Manchester last night causing widespread damage to properties, the Met Office said.
The forecaster said that radar evidence showing a "strong rotating updraft" suggested that a tornado was "likely".
It added that it was awaiting data from the ground to confirm.
Greater Manchester Police said officers were called to "numerous reports of significant damage" to homes in Stalybridge, Tameside, at around 11.45pm due to a "localised tornado".
