As Hurricane Hermine approached the eastern coast of the United States in September 2016, a photograph purportedly showing a large waterspout near Avalon Pier in North Carolina started circulating online: However, this photograph has been digitally manipulated and does not depict a waterspout spotted off the coast of North Carolina. It's a composite that used an image of waterspout in Florida captured in July 2013 by photographer Joey Mole: This is at least the second time that Mole's original photograph of a waterspout has been doctored or mislabeled. In October 2015, the same image was circulated along with the claim that it showed Hurricane Patricia making landfall in Mexico.
