WATCH: Funnel Cloud Over New York City

A funnel cloud was spotted on Tuesday - over New York Harbor. Take a look as a funnel cloud moved over New York Harbor, between the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Manhattan on Tuesday afternoon as a strong line of storms moved through the city. https://twitter.com/MikeMostwill/status/1019297362324443136 https://twitter.com/LeeGoldbergABC7/status/1019298296295247872 The National Weather Service (NWS) office in New York said no tornado touched down, but it was indeed a funnel cloud. A funnel cloud is the parent to a tornado, but in order for a tornado to have officially taken place, the funnel needs to be in contact with the ground. The funnel lifted quickly. This was in association with a strong line of storms that moved through the area on Tuesday afternoon, some of which led to flooding in and near Washington, D.C, about 200 miles southwest of New York City. https://twitter.com/ArlingtonVaFD/status/1019315074375221249 Stay with WeatherNation for the latest on this.
