A steam devil is a weather phenomenon that resembles a small tornado or water spout and occurs over a body of water, particularly when warm, moist air rises rapidly. It is characterized by the rotation of moist air that picks up water vapor and creates a visible column or whirl. Steam devils often form on warm days when the temperature of the water is significantly higher than the air above it, resulting in strong convection currents.
