Episode Narrative | Two separate showers very close to a stationary front each produced a landspout tornado on the afternoon of May 4. |
Event Narrative | Video via social media confirms a brief landspout and/or waterspout occurred near the northern end of Blue Marsh Lake in the Blue Marsh National Recreation area near the community of Mount Pleasant. An initial storm survey did not find any evidence of damage in this area. It is plausible that the tornadic circulation occurred entirely over water, or in an inaccessible area of land. Path length and width is estimated based on the available video. |
