The correct term is a funnel cloud:
A funnel cloud is a funnel-shaped cloud of condensed water droplets, associated with a rotating column of wind and extending from the base of a cloud (usually a cumulonimbus or towering cumulus cloud) but not reaching the ground or a water surface.

If a funnel cloud touches the ground it becomes a tornado. Most tornadoes begin as funnel clouds, but many funnel clouds do not make ground contact and so do not become tornadoes.

...well pallie.....it was on the ground....pics doh lie..

x100

Yup, it did touch the ground.
I was in my car facing south by the Grand Bazaar lights when I first noticed it. It was when I almost got to the Caroni overpass I realised that it had touched the ground. I pulled over and I could see the dirt getting whipped up and thrown around and up from the base... It was damn cool to see, that's for sure!!!

From what I could tell, it looked so.. My girlfriend took some pics with her phone but the resolution wasn't good enough..I'm sorry I didn't have my camera with me, from my unobstructed vantage point, those shots would have been INSANE!

This is where it appeared to be..

TV6 had a few pics on their newscast tonight, some of them that were posted here including the one by Riaz Ali. One of their pics showed there was a touchdown - no doubt about that, and there was minor damage.
