    Cool vid!

    Pity he/she put it up on the tube first.. I'd be ringing RTE and asking them how much will they pay for Ireland's first recorded twister vid!

    Amazing! I didn't see the tornado but was woken by the sound of constant distant thunder which was ongoing for ages which I thought was strange but not surprising seen as this system I was hearing produced a tornado!!!

    FYI: Oh showing the vid to a friend in the US (who sees loads of em) that's called a Water Spout and they usually fizzle out once they hit land.

    Definitely a water spout. And a pretty piddling one at that !

    RTE News has a short piece on it. Met spokesperson says "conditions were right for it".

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    She did go on to explain the conditions which added body to the "quote"

    they called it a "water tornado" on the 6 news.

    These things are commonplace in Ireland just not many people record them on video. They usually form over the sea due to the marked temperature differences between sea and land and by the time they hit the coast they are more out than "spout"

    I'be seen a few spouts over the years, but still think that the most impressive are the dust devils seen on dollymount.
