If you were near the waterfront in downtown St. Petersburg on Saturday you may have witnessed a dramatic show from Mother Nature.

A waterspout formed over the water of Tampa Bay and was visible from downtown St. Pete.

People pulled out their cell phones to take photos and video of the amazing sight.

Some witnesses shared what they saw on the WFLA News Channel 8 Facebook page.

Nancy Westphal snapped a great shot of the water spout from the Hangar Restaurant which overlooks the runway at Albert Whitted Airport.
