UPDATED: Video and photos of waterspouts swirling off the Outer Banks on Monday

Social media was filled with video and images of waterspouts along the Outer Banks Monday.

Meteorologists at the National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City office said conditions were ripe for the small over-water tornadoes: light winds, a lot of moisture and mild instability.

Hampton Sylvia captured video of the waterspout that formed off Colington just after sunset.

Jennette’s Pier posted a Facebook photo by Larry Haley of a waterspout near Roanoke Island Monday afternoon, saying it disappeared quickly.

Around the same time, Garden Deli & Pizzeria in Manteo posted a picture by Crystal Simpson of a funnel cloud photo saying “Come get your pizza before we are blown to Oz.”

In Duck, Kasey Anne Powell caught an image of a waterspout from Nor’Banks Sailing and Watersports. It, too, dissipated quickly.

NWS meteorologists say waterspouts rarely make landfall, and usually dissipate rapidly if they do.
