Several YouReporters saw a waterspout Tuesday morning off Delray Beach and Boynton Beach.
Florida sees a lot of waterspout activity, especially in the Florida Keys, which typically sees 400-600 waterspouts a year.
According to the National Weather Service waterspouts can easily overturn boats.
The National Weather Service advises boaters to take evasive action if a waterspout is seen by moving at a 90 degree angle from the spout's apparent movement.
