Tornado in France
A huge tornado swept off the coast of L’Ile-Rus on the island of Corsica, France, on Saturday, October 2, 2021.

Water tornadoes can most often be observed in the fall. They are usually not very dangerous, as they quickly lose their strength and mostly dissipate before they reach shore. But a small number of them sometimes turn into ground tornadoes, so you need to be very careful if you find yourself nearby.
