Episode narrativeepisode_narrative	Two waterspouts formed in succession and in association with a cloud line along the north side of Key West. The second waterspout formed within a bight and damaged vessels at dock, without ever reaching shore.
Event narrativeevent_narrative	A waterspout was observed to develop within Garrison Bight outside of the Palm Drive Bridge, and drifted slowly west, reaching a dock at a sailing center. 3 catamarans were considerably damaged due to overturning while tied to the dock, causing the dock planking to twist and detach from the pilings. 3 other vessels at the same dock had minor damage with ripped covers and canopy tops. A video relayed by social media showed the width of the spray ring was only a few yards across, with the spray ring dissipating before the waterspout reached shore. No damage was observed onshore at the sailing center nor an adjacent marina.
