Spouting on


To add to all the wonderful attractions we have, this waterspout – a tornado which forms over the sea – could be seen for about 20 minutes from Colwyn Bay and Llandudno at around 11.15am, yesterday, heading towards the Rhyl Flats windfarm, where it faded from sight.

They're truly fascinating things, tornados and waterspouts, and we get more of them than you might think - about 350 last year in the UK. Best not to take the rubber dinghy out when you see one, however.
