Think it is funnel cloud but if not the folk of Latheron need to build underground bunkers just in case of land fall! Quite frightening though.

In picture 2 it looks like it touches land so would that make it a tornado, however briefly? Awesome pics either way.

if a funnel cloud 'touches down' even for a second or two, then yes it becomes a tornado as correctly posted by Geo

great shots, would you email me one or two for my website please if you don't mind and let me know your name for credits
