Did anyone come across this in the newspapers? Did anyone see it? I thought it was interesting.
On 25th May, many people saw this phenomenon which looks like a twister or tornado near the east coast area. It is actually not a rare sighting (my husband saw one when he was surfing out at sea during his teenage years), water spouts happen once or twice a year.
It is actually a narrow spout of water being sucked up to the base of a certain kind of clouds (cumuliform clouds) during thunderstorms as there is low pressure below the cloud.
Water spouts are known to dissipate rapidly near the coastal area and would usually not cause any harm or damage.
