Fire tornado dances across US field

A perfect storm of weather conditions has sparked this awe-inspiring sight in Oregon – a “firenado”.

Footage posted by the Cornelius Fire Department near Portland earlier in the weekend show the twister dancing across a field spitting out smoke and flames, KIRO7 reports.

Fire tornados are created when a bushfire creates its own wind and becomes a twirling funnel of flames.

Noone was injure by the fire tornado and fire crews were able to extinguish it.
