In the last 40 minutes of so there have been at least eight large waterspouts just off the coast between Paphos and the Akamas.

Did anyone else see them?

Thank you

You are welcome. The first two pictures are mine and look to have been downloaded from the Cyprus Mail. The third one looks like an older photo as, due to the strength of the wind offshore yesterday the spouts were all angling down and to the right. Still impressive to see though.

The story and the rest of the photos are here. https://cyprus-mail.com/2023/04/27/waterspouts-spotted-off-paphos/

Sorry I didn't credit you with the pictures, :bearhug the item only stated "A Cyprus Mail reader submitted the following photos."

Another forum member sent it to me..didn't say if it was recent or not, just that it was a water 'sprite' off Peyia
