just heard on the local news that there is a water spout over some Long Island waters.
Now does that have any effect or notes for pilots flying in from Europe? I am wondering what everyone else may have seen or heard.

And I, I took the path less traveled by

I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

Well I'm pretty sure they wouldn't fly planes through a water spout, or for that matter, anywhere close to them. A waterspout is the same thing as a tornado, just on water...
There is a few stories where crews have inadvertantly for one reason or another either passed dangerously close to tornadoes and spouts or right through them.

NOw that would make a photo of the day, a photo of one of these water spouts from the air!

And yet again, now there was one spotted in the Port Jefferson/Northport area.

A rare water spout was observed at midday yesterday in Long Island Sound off Smithtown Bay.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
