I agree, it was pretty close. I'm in Caroline, nearer to the gate and for a short time, it was quite dark, quite windy and the rain was pretty heavy. Didn't know about that particular funnel cloud or if it touched down. Nothing I've heard so far indicates it did, but it's pretty dark and by the light of day, more will be seen.
