Caught On Camera: Weak Funnel Cloud In Molino
September 21, 2011
A NorthEscambia.com reader took these photos Wednesday afternoon in Molino showing what the National Weather Service said appeared to be a very weak funnel cloud. The photos were taken near Fairground Road and the Escambia River.
“It may be a funnel cloud,” said Don Faulkner, meteorologist with the National Weather Service Office in Mobile said. “We think that it may have spun up on the shear zone along the sea breeze possibly as a waterspout over the bay and maintained its mid level structure as it moved inland. Atmospheric conditions were not conducive for tornado development but it is unstable enough for waterspouts and brief funnel clouds.”

Very interesting pictures of mother nature at work. The second cloud looks like it’s churning.
