Waterspouts on Nipissing? 4 new pics added

Loyal BayToday reader North Bayer snapped the following pictures Saturday evening from the lookout between North Bay and Sturgeon Falls.

North Bayer says one spout became two and just as they started to leave the lookout in fact it looked like a third was starting to form from that.

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, describes A waterspout as being "an intense columnar vortex (usually appearing as a funnel-shaped cloud) that occurs over a body of water and is connected to a cumuliform cloud. In the common form, it is a nonsupercell tornado over water, and brings the water upward. Also, it is weaker than most of its land counterparts."
