Incredible Florida Keys Waterspout - by Martin Kucera

Amazing. These are, unfortunately, common on the Florida coasts, especially on the Gulf of Mexico side and the Key West areas. Waterspouts, generally, have lower wind speeds than tornadoes over land. But they are still dangerous to be near.

Martin.

That was huge! I wish the Juky 16th spout was that big. It looks almost a big as the Marathon spout on June 24th 2007.

10nu1sa1:and how did you guess that? did you measure the wind-speed ? its not totaly size-related... its wind-speed.or else people might call it subjectively and wouldnt be a worthwile risk assessment

Lywnis .... I havent measur nothing , i think this tornado is a f2 for his intensity and its speed.I'm not good in english... i'm italian sorry

[Lywnis]

allora parliamo in Italiano :) parlo la vostra lingua sin da piccolo... non significa che non faccio errori. Dicevo soltanto,che la asserzione di velocita "A occhio" non puo' essere esatta,ma dipende da come bene osservi questi fenomeni.Mi domandavo,come sapevi che era un F2

[1OnU1SA1]

Semplicemente, ho fatto una supposizione. Faccio un esempio banale: un tornado F5 non ha quelle dimensioni e quella potenza, è mostruosamente più grande! Quindi,deduco che potrebbe trattarsi di un f2-f3.... non pensi? Complimenti, sai parlare bene l'italiano
