Holy Marconi, that's a doozy. Saw a few wimpy little ones here on Lake Ontario during the last sail of the season. This is what I was hoping to see.

Not fake. Youtube is the great equalizer for non fake posts. Post dates confirm the truth.

[emoji23] Just asking, because France imposed a new law against fake news recently... Could be they banned the footage. [emoji23]

This puny little one was about 12 miles east of us. We were a bit busy to get a good shot of two that had formed.

Re: From CNN: Massive waterspout churns off Italian coast
Wow, thats a beast as waterspouts go!
Ive seen a lot of them in the GOM & W Carib.
There is an area off Belize where they are common when conditions are right. Saw 3 at once there, but all tiny compared to this beast. Got a pic of one there:
