Waterspouts - Long Key, FL - July 16, 2008 Posted by: cyclonejimcom
Video duration: 483 seconds Several intense waterspouts developed over the waters of Florida Bay just north of Long Key, Florida (in the middle Florida Keys) on the afternoon of July 16, 2008. One of the more intense spouts moved onshore very near my location, with the spray ring passing directly over a dock while pushing a large wave (like a mini storm surge) alongside it. The funnel quickly dissipated once it moved inland.
