What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
Jun 6, 7:12 PM EDT	TSTM WND GST 53	Pompano Beach, FL

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Miami, FL (KMFL), launched 12:00Z, 10.9 hours before the alert went out and 58 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Miami, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 6, 4:51 PM EDT, 2 hours 3 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 6, 4:51 PM EDT, 2 hours 3 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
451 PM EDT SAT JUN 6 2009

.UPDATE...
THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THAT WERE OVER THE METRO AREAS OF
MIAMI-DADE AND BROWARD COUNTIES HAVE DISSIPATED LATE THIS
AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...NEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED
OVER THE EVERGLADES OF BROWARD AND MIAMI-DADE COUNTIES. THESE
SHOWERS COULD WORK INTO THE EAST COAST METRO AREAS THIS EVENIGN
BEFORE DISSIPATING. THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE LAKE
OKEECHOBEE AND PALM BEACH COUNTY WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO SLOWLY
DECREASE THROUGH REST OF THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.

SO WILL LOWER THE POPS TO SCATTERED COVERAGE OVER MOST OF THE EAST
COAST METRO AREAS...EXCEPT KEEP IT NUMEROUS OVER THE LAKE
OKEECHOBEE AREA FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.

REST OF THE FORECAST LOOKS GOOD AT THIS TIME.

&&
UPDATE...54/BNB

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 326 PM EDT SAT JUN 6 2009/

..STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND AGAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON
INTERIOR AND EAST COAST METRO AREAS...

DISCUSSION...

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WERE DEVELOPING OVER THE INTERIOR AND
EAST COAST METRO AREAS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON ALONG THE EAST AND
WEST COAST SEA BREEZES. THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD
CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OVER THESE AREAS THROUGH REST OF THE AFTERNOON
HOURS AS THE WEST AND EAST COAST SEA BREEZES COLLIDE...AND AS THE
SHORT WAVE IN THE MID TO UPPER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE CONTINUES
TO MOVE EAST ACROSS THE CWA.

THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD SLOWLY DISSIPATE THIS EVENING
OVER THE INTERIOR AND EAST COAST METRO AREAS THIS EVENING...AS THE
SHORT WAVE CONTINUES TO MOVE EAST INTO THE ATLANTIC WATERS AND THE
HEATING OF THE DAY IS LOST.

HOWEVER...ANOTHER SHORT WAVE LOCATED OVER THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO
THIS AFTERNOON WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTHEAST AND EAST TOWARDS
SOUTH FLORIDA TONIGHT AND THROUGH SOUTH FLORIDA ON SUNDAY AROUND
BASE OF THE OF THE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE LOCATED OVER THE EASTERN
GULF OF MEXICO. THIS WILL KEEP THE STEERING FLOW OVER THE CWA FROM
THE SOUTHWEST TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY.

SO WILL CONTINUE WITH SCATTERED POPS THIS EVENING OVER THE
INTERIOR AND EAST COAST METRO AREAS TAPERING DOWN TO ISOLATED POPS
AFTER MIDNIGHT. FOR THE WEST COAST METRO AREAS WILL HAVE ISOLATED
POPS THIS EVENING BEFORE INCREASING TO SCATTERED POPS AFTER
MIDNIGHT. ON SUNDAY...THE POPS HAVE BEEN INCREASE TO LIKELY OVER
ALL AREAS OF THE CWA.

THE FORECAST SOUNDINGS FROM THE SHORT RANGE MODELS ALSO CONTINUE
TO SHOW THE COLD AIR ALOFT BETWEEN -10C AND -11C OVER SOUTH
FLORIDA THIS AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON OVER THE CWA. SO WILL
CONTINUE THE STRONG TO SEVERE WORDING FOR THE INTERIOR AND EAST
COAST METRO AREAS THIS EVENING...AND AGAIN FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
THE PRIMARY IMPACTS WILL BE HAIL...GUSTY WINDS...HEAVY RAINFALL...AND
LIGHTNING STRIKES.

THE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL THEN MOVE THROUGH THE CWA ON
MONDAY AND BE EAST OF THE CWA ON TUESDAY ALLOWING FOR RIDGE OF
HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD BACK INTO THE AREA ON TUESDAY. SO THE DEEP
TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL SLOWLY DECREASE OVER SOUTH FLORIDA EARLY
THIS WEEK...AND SHIFT THE STEERING FLOW BACK TO A SOUTHEAST
DIRECTION BY TUESDAY. SO THE HIGHEST POPS WILL SHIFT TO THE LAKE
OKEECHOBEE AREA ON MONDAY AND THEN TO THE WEST COAST METRO AREAS
ON TUESDAY.

EXTENDED FORECAST...
THE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER SOUTH FLORIDA FOR THE
MIDDLE TO END OF NEXT WEEK KEEPING THE SOUTHEAST WIND FLOW OVER
THE CWA. THIS WILL KEEP THE HIGHEST POPS OVER THE INTERIOR AND
WEST COAST METRO AREAS EACH AFTERNOON WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
MAINLY MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS EAST COAST AREAS.

THE LONG RANGE MODELS ARE STILL SHOWING A WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
DEVELOPING IN THE WESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA LATE THIS WEEK AND MOVING
NORTH SLOWLY TOWARDS THE SOUTHEAST GULF OF MEXICO OR THE FLORIDA
STRAITS THIS WEEKEND. THIS WILL KEEP THE WINDS IN A EASTERLY WIND
FLOW AND ALLOW FOR THE WINDS TO INCREASE TO BREEZY CONDITIONS...DUE
TO THE TIGHTENING OF THE PRESSURE GRADIENT. AT THE SAME
TIME...SOME MORE MOISTURE WILL WORK INTO THE CWA AREA BY THIS
WEEKEND. SO HAVE INCREASED THE POPS A LITTLE BIT OVER THE CWA FOR
THIS WEEKEND.

WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST LONG RANGE MODEL RUNS ON THE
DEVELOPMENT AND MOVEMENT OF THE LOW IN THE CARIBBEAN SEA THIS WEEK.

MARINE...
THE WINDS WILL REMAIN SOUTHERLY THIS AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY BEFORE
SWINGING TO A EASTERLY DIRECTION EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE WIND SPEEDS
WILL BE LESS THAN 15 KNOTS THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...SO
THE SEAS WILL REMAIN BELOW 4 FEET THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK. THEREFORE...BOATING SHOULD BE GOOD ON THE SOUTH FLORIDA
WATERS THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK OUTSIDE OF THE SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS.

FIRE WEATHER...
THE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE THE CRITICAL VALUES
THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...DUE TO THE TROPICAL MOISTURE
IN PLACE OVER THE AREA. SO NO PROBLEMS WITH THE FIRE WEATHER
PRODUCT.
