Fire tornado in Brazil (natural sound)

Brush fires and strong dry winds caused a fire tornado in the Brazilian municipality of Aracatuba on Tuesday. A whirlwind of flame, spiralling several metres high, danced across burning fields, bringing traffic to a halt on a nearby highway, before it dissolved, as rapidly as it appeared. The mini-firestorm followed weeks of drought which led to brush fires across the country.
