VIDEO: Waterspout comes ashore at Clearwater Beach, 2 sent to hospital

As thunderstorms rolled into the Tampa Bay area Friday evening, a small waterspout that moved ashore at Clearwater Beach sent two people to the hospital.
It happened at around 4 p.m. The 63-year-old man and a woman said to be 70 years old, both from Kansas, were taken to Morton Plant Hospital as a precaution with "very minor injuries," police said. The couple was at Barefoot Beach House restaurant when some rough weather rolled through, authorities reported.

Its pretty ironic that a couple from Kansas went all the way to Florida to get hit by a tornado...

What's more ironic is that they were playing a tune by Toto on their boombox when the spout hit.

Once it comes ashore, doesn’t it become a tornado?

[@youngmoneysaint813]

Depends

[@DimensionalGD1]

If it’s a tornadic water spout it does

[@eligebrown8998]

Get no sympathy from me. Should have cleared out as soon as they seen it coming.

[@urlocalsapphicjew3049]

apparently it really formed quickly and no one saw it coming.

[@utubeskreename9516]

Sure, you saw it coming, but all those "fear is the enemy" and "you're unstoppable" self-help mantras came through for you in the end!!!
