These images were taken during the morning hours (around ~11:00 a.m. EDT) off Highland Beach and Boca Raton in SE Palm Beach County. The convergence line move SSW into northern Broward County and produced multiple waterspouts. I didn't observe the funnels from my location.

Wow, those were great photos! Especially that one close-up of the larger waterspout.

Nice to be able to see photos of these beauties and know that they caused no harm whatsoever . . .

Amazing pictures.
I changed the title since I think others would be equally fascinating.

I do not think I have EVER seen a report with "Funnel Cloud" listed as current conditions before.

Three of them in one picture! That was cool!

The first one looked pretty scary though. It sure did have a lot of debris or water churned up by it.
