What the National Weather Service wrote

A pilot reported a thunderstorm which produced at least two waterspouts 10 miles due west of Saint Thomas and 8 miles northwest of Charlotte Amalie.

The wider storm

An elongated surface trough across the Atlantic and Caribbean waters to the west and northwest of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands induced a moist south to south southeast wind flow, favorable for waterspout development. Several waterspouts were reported by pilots near Saint Thomas and north Puerto Rico.

Began near Charlotte Amalie (18.4119, -65.0063).
