An onlooker captured what has been described as a “water-snake” tornado cutting across a menacingly dark cloud in Mexico City on August 14.

The natural phenomenon was recorded in the village of San Martin de los Piramedes, in the north of the central Mexican state of Mexico State.

In the video, a tornado can be seen swirling high into a menacing cloud, later accompanied by heavy rains and powerful gusts of winds. The Mayor of the village, Francisco Robles Badillo, confirmed that nobody was injured but some damage was done to property and infrastructure.
