That's the rotation of cells interacting with the friction of the land, coupled with an active jet.. It's another angular momentum thing.
No surprise especially with a former CAT 5 fighting the SJT and the NE side (dirty) raking the FL mainland.

Cat 5s build up a lot of angular momentum. Hi Ang Mo + friction = spin. Yeah, it was really amazing to see spinup wedge tornadoes
Hurricanes have produced monster tornadoes. Hurricane Carla (1961) and Hilda (1964) come to mind.
