WATER SPOUT

Saw this over the Gulf Sunday morning. Never did touch down but was my first vision of any kind of tornado.

Always nice to see from a safe distance, saw one a little too close for comfort in Amarillo back when I was in school in the USAF. It was exciting then, thinking back I should have been terrified! Very nicely seen and shot!

A water spout went through one of our cities last week and it knocked workers off a high rise building causing damage and injury.

I was going to ask if you saw rain in Galveson this weekend. We didn't get any at the house, but heard it was right down the road. Very cool catch of it. I like the ships, gives us an idea of scale.
