One of the biggest sensationalist AGW trolls on The Australian Weather Forum posted a pic claiming that it is of a "water spout".

Here is a link to the pic, first post:

The Australian Weather Forum • View topic - VIC - Cold Front, Warmth/Showers/Storms/Hail/Snow Oct 15-17

Do you think it is a water spout? In my opinion no. Looks more like the coke dust from this guy's bong.

can't tell. it may have connected with a funnel cloud above, but that's speculation. from that pic you could call it a water devil.
