Landspout
A landspout is an unofficial term for a tornado not associated with a mesocyclone. Landspouts most often are weak, featuring a small condensation funnel which often does not reach the ground, often marked by a tall tube of dust and/or debris reaching as far up as the parent cloud. Though usually weaker than classic tornadoes, they can cause serious damage
