CLEVELAND, Ohio – Sunday’s weather conditions in Northeast Ohio proved to be just right for waterspouts to pop up along Lake Erie.
As a cold front moved into the region, the National Weather Service forecasted isolated thunderstorms and a potential of waterspouts. Waterspouts are typically formed when cold air moves across the Great Lakes, creating large temperature differences between warmer water and cold air, according to the NWS.
The NWS, alongside the International Centre for Waterspout Research (ICWR), tracked several waterspouts in the lake throughout Sunday morning. The ICWR reported on Twitter that 41 waterspouts or funnels had been confirmed, though some of those waterspouts were spotted in the same location.
Those locations include, from west to east: off of Cedar Point; off of Lorain Harbor; north of the mouth of the Rocky River and near Burke Lakefront Airport in Cleveland, according to ICWR tracking.
The chances of thunderstorms – and more waterspouts, for that matter – has diminished throughout the day Sunday, according to the National Weather Service. Some scattered rain and thunderstorms are possible before 8 p.m., and the chance decreases even more between 8 p.m. and 1 a.m. Monday.
