Storms that developed in Tampa Friday evening spawned more than just rain. A brief waterspout was spotted.

It was close to 6:30 in Tampa Bay near MacDill Air Force Base that a funnel cloud formed. Photos below show the twister.

There's even a short video clip that shows the waterspout at the surface of Tampa Bay
