I talked about it here:

Also something else that was pretty cool...
In the cloud that spun off the funnel, I could see moisture feeding into the cloud out of seemingly clear air. It was incredible to watch. It was like little dark-gray fingers forming out of clear air and flowing rapidly into the developing thundercloud.
Now-this funnel WAS NOT one of those tiny "fingers." It was a small tube. It didn't stretch that far from the cloud, but it was long enough that I could definitely say it was a funnel.
Hey, at least I saw something. I sent an email to the NWS about it.
Can anyone look at radar from the time I indicated in the link? There were a couple of storms with weak rotation, and there had been a tornado warning issued for Orange County, NY-though it was most likely due to rotation in the cloud, since I didn't hear of funnel clouds or tornado touchdown from that storm on the news.
