episode_narrativeA low topped supercell formed about 30 miles off the coast of Carlsbad and moved eastward across northern San Diego County during the late morning and early afternoon hours of the 11th. The supercell first produced a brief waterspout about two miles off the coast of Moonlight Beach. No damage was reported with this waterspout. The supercell then came ashore and left a swath of 1/2 inch diameter hail one inch deep from Carlsbad to Escondido. As the supercell approached Escondido, one inch diameter hail was reported and a rotating wall cloud was observed by local spotters and staff at the NWS San Diego office. A few minutes later, a brief funnel cloud was spotted underneath the wall cloud as the storm passed over interstate 15. The supercell continued eastward into a rural area along highway 78 before producing a weak tornado in rural northwest Ramona. The tornado was on the ground for nearly two miles and caused damage to trees, out buildings, and homes. No injuries were reported with this tornado. The storm began to lose its structure as it headed into the mountains east of Ramona and no further reports of severe weather were received from this storm.
