水面上发生了什么？这张照片是迄今为止记录的最好的水龙卷照片之一，水龙卷是一种发生在水面上的龙卷风。水龙卷是由上升的潮湿空气组成的旋转柱，通常形成于温水之上。水龙卷可能和龙卷风一样危险，风速可能超过每小时200公里。有些水龙卷形成于远离雷暴的地方，甚至是在相对晴朗的天气里。水龙卷可能是相对透明的，最初只能通过它们在水面上形成的不寻常的图案才能看到。这张特色照片拍摄于2013年7月佛罗里达州坦帕湾附近。佛罗里达海岸外的大西洋可以说是世界上水龙卷最活跃的区域，每年形成数百个。你的天空惊喜：APOD在你的生日上展示了什么照片？(1995后)

What's happening over the water? Pictured here is one of the better images yet recorded of a waterspout, a type of tornado that occurs over water. Waterspouts are spinning columns of rising moist air that typically form over warm water. Waterspouts can be as dangerous as tornadoes and can feature wind speeds over 200 kilometers per hour. Some waterspouts form away from thunderstorms and even during relatively fair weather. Waterspouts may be relatively transparent and initially visible only by an unusual pattern they create on the water. The featured image was taken in 2013 July near Tampa Bay, Florida. The Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Florida is arguably the most active area in the world for waterspouts, with hundreds forming each year.
