Waterspout Over Mobile Bay

A beautiful waterspout was sighted over Mobile Bay, AL this afternoon. Waterspouts are much like tornadoes, only often times much weaker and form with water instead of land. Check out the picture and video below.

I’ll be traveling to Gulf Shores this next week, and I hope to get as lucky and see one myself!
