Gender:  |  Waterspouts spotted off east coast of Singapore
SINGAPORE: More waterspouts have been spotted in Singapore.
Callers to the MediaCorp News hotline reported seeing several off the east coast.
There was no calm before the storm, as dark clouds over SAF Yacht Club at Changi spun into tower-high water spouts.
And eyewitnesses say they saw more than one spinning off the waters of Singapore.
"From where I stood, it was about 10 storeys high. There were three of them. They were about a few metres away from each other. There was one more that was forming. We could see water spinning at the top but it wasn't fully formed yet at the bottom," says Ariff Wahid from the SAF Yacht Club.
"There were a lot of waterspouts coming near to the club. But actually it was very far. It started to disappear half an hour later. It was spinning very fast towards one of the big ships there," says Fadilah Hajis, a member of staff at the SAF Yacht Club.
About 20 people including staff and guests at the club spotted the phenomenon from as early as 10 in the morning.
Most said it lasted for about half an hour before heavy rain took over.
The last time something similar was reported was at East Coast Park in late May 2007.
The National Environment Agency confirmed Tuesday's sighting. |

from STOMP:
Hot on the heels of last month's waterspout sighting, another one has turned up this morning (12 June) at around 10:30am.
Marketing manager Chng Wan Ping, 27, and her staff at the SAF Yacht Club were the first to inform STOMP of the sighting.  
Chng and her staff quickly snapped pictures of the waterspout, and also recorded a short video of it.
STOMPer James Chan also saw this morning's waterspout from Changi Naval Base. He said, "it came just before the storm. Uniquely, it has three funnels. I don't think we have seen three waterspouts in our shore waters before."

nono..
tsunami is caused by the movement of plates under the sea.. not by differences in air pressure in the atmosphere..
