HAZARD...Waterspouts and funnel clouds.

         hazardous waters. If a funnel cloud briefly touches down, 
         minor damage to outdoor objects is possible.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Conditions are favorable for the development of weak, brief funnel
clouds. This type of funnel cloud is harmless, but on rare occasions
they can briefly touch down, producing wind gusts over 50 mph. If a
funnel cloud is spotted move indoors or to safe harbor and report
your sighting to the National Weather Service.
