Waterspouts Today!

If you are on the Lakeshore or in a boat today, keep your eyes peeled for a freaky phenomenon: waterspouts.

Cold air over big bodies of warm water can produce whirling liquid masses that look like offshore tornadoes. They are more common in Northern Michigan, but the fresh water funnel clouds have been popping up along the western shores of Lake Michigan all morning, with sightings in Green Bay, Milwaukee and  in Chicago.
