A Water Spout formed of LIS today. Several tried to form and
one actually touched down--about 40' tall.
Ever seen one?

I sail dinghys on a small inland lake. "Swirlies" are pretty common,
but I've only seen one where the wind was strong enough for it to be a
waterspout. It picked up a pontoon boat and flipped it upside down.
Pretty impressive.
Ok, maybe it wasn't strong enough to be a "real" waterspout, but it was
still pretty impresssive.
