waterspout

     

A waterspout is an intense columnar vortex (usually appearing as a funnel-shape cloud) that occurs over a body of water and is connected to a cumuliform cloud. In the common form, it is a nonsupercell tornado over water, and brings the water upward. Also, it is weaker than most of its land counterparts.
