In a series of nonmesocyclonic “landspout” tornadoes from the same multicell storm’s large base, this third (distant center) for-sure one was the faintest, and nowhere nearly as dusty as the second or broad as the first. Nonetheless, it sported a needle-like condensation funnel and narrow, wispy dust tube. Except for the foreground’s being Platte Valley lowland on the Great Plains, this event reminded me much of a few even more-distant sets of waterspouts I saw in the Florida Keys long ago, from lines of deep towers and intermittent cores, while fishing from bridges. Unfortunately, those were so far away that slide shooting was nearly futile.
