0950 AM WATERSPOUT 2 SE BIG COPPITT KEY 24.57N 81.64W
10/12/2025 GMZ044 FL PUBLIC
A THIN, NEAR VERTICAL, MATURE WATERSPOUT WAS
OBSERVED OFFSHORE FROM THE PUBLIC BOAT RAMP
ON THE ATLANTIC SIDE OF U.S. 1 AT MILE
MARKER 11, AND REPORTED VIA SOCIAL MEDIA. AT
ITS MOST MATURE STAGE, THE CONDENSATION
COLUMN, AND THE NEARLY TRANSPARENT SHEATH,
APPEAR VERY CLOSE TO THE SURFACE. HOWEVER,
TREES/MANGROVES IN THE FOREGROUND BLOCK ANY
VISUAL OF A SPRAY RING. CONSIDERING THE
PROXIMITY TO THE SURFACE, THERE WAS LIKELY A
VISIBLE SPRAY RING. THE WATERSPOUT LASTED
FOR MORE THAN A FEW MINUTES, BUT LESS THAN
TEN MINUTES.
