Tornado blogging
Most people are unaware of the significant number of tornados that occur in Florida each year. Most of Florida's twisters, however, are waterspouts, which occur over water and are generally not destructive. Today, we had just gone inside due to stormy weather when my sister started shouting. We saw a waterspout a few hundred feet away from us, right on the beach. It was small as far as twisters go, but I've never actually seen a tornado up close before. It meandered a short distance down the beach, and then fell apart as it moved inland. I managed to snap a few pictures before it collapsed. (Click on pics to enlarge.)
