A very large waterspout, tornado over water, was seen in the Gulf of Valencia, Spain on November 27, 2016 and recorded by numerous witnesses.
According to Ametse (Association Meteorologica del Sureste), a severe thunderstorm anchored in the Gulf of Valencia apparently produced two bigger waterspouts and a bunch of smaller ones.
The waterspout did not reach land and there are no reports of injuries.
