Tornado rips through Fort Lauderdale Beach
A funnel cloud was spotted in Fort Lauderdale as the National Weather Service issued several tornado warnings for South Florida.
According to Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue, the tornado formed over land and touched down just west of Las Olas and the Intracoastal Waterway just before 6 p.m. Saturday evening.

Authorities said the tornado made contact with some structures, power lines and marine vessels in that immediate area, before appearing to move quickly to the east until it reached the ocean — no longer impacting land or the Intracoastal.
So far, no injuries have been reported due to the storm and rescue crews reported seeing minor damage including some downed power lines.
Random Florida Fact
The Underwater Museum of Art was the first permanent underwater sculpture exhibit in North America.
It opened in 2018 in the gulf waters off Santa Rosa Beach.
The artificial reef sculptures lie about 60 feet underwater and have since attracted a variety of animal and plant species in an area once devoid of life.
Each year, a selection of sculptural works drawn from artists throughout the world, is selected by a jury and installed in the underwater garden.
