Kopelman has the latest. This was a really rare situation and in which the dynamics werent really there to support a tornado touching down. However there was just enough spin in the mid levels of the atmosphere that supported this funnel cloud developing. There was a report it touched down which did lead to a tornado warning.

This was a weak funnel cloud and weak tornado and no damage was record.

It is going to start to fall apart w
