| Caption | A landspout tornado is seen near Willcox, Arizona, on the afternoon of August 15, 2014. Like most landspouts, this one was rather weak and short-lived, lasting approximately 6 minutes and causing little damage. Tornadoes are rare in Arizona. This one was associated with the updraft of a rapidly-growing monsoon storm. The vorticity associated with this landspout is believed to have been caused by the collision of two outflow boundaries from earlier storms. | |
