      Shown in the photo above is a  waterspout that formed over  Lake   
      Los Molinos in Argentina on February 21, 2022. With weather conditions   
      in the region being suitable for waterspout creation, an alert was sent   
      by the National Meteorological Service for the Paravachasca Valley at   
      around 12:41 p.m. local time. Waterspouts can be divided into two   
      types: tornadic and fair weather. Like the name implies, tornadic   
      waterspouts typically develop as  tornadoes produced by  severe   
      thunderstorms over land before moving over a waterbody. Conversely,   
      fair-weather waterspouts are generated solely over water and are   
      usually less severe and smaller. Watching this event from a distance,   
      it was evident the strength varied as the waterspout moved above the   
      lake.
