The radar

The Melbourne radar (KMLB), 35 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 21:20 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

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

Cape Canaveral, FL (KXMR), launched 12:00Z, 9.3 hours before the alert went out and 74 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 Melbourne, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 18, 2:33 PM EDT, 2 hours 45 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 18, 2:33 PM EDT, 2 hours 45 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL
233 PM EDT SAT JUN 18 2011

.DISCUSSION...

CURRENTLY/TONIGHT...SHOWER/STORM DEVELOPMENT WILL INCREASE INTO LATE
AFT WITH THE CONTINUED INLAND MOVEMENT OF THE EAST/WEST COAST SEA
BREEZE BOUNDARIES AND SUPPORT FROM APPROACHING SHORTWAVE ALOFT.
DELAYED DEVELOPMENT OF THE SEA BREEZE NORTH OF THE CAPE WILL ALLOW
FOR BOUNDARY COLLISIONS CLOSER TO THE COAST LATE TODAY. ANY STORMS
THAT DEVELOP OVER THE INTERIOR WILL MOVE TOWARD THE EAST AROUND 5-10
MPH AND MAY REACH BACK TOWARD THE COAST...ESPECIALLY NORTH OF
MELBOURNE THIS EVENING. WILL INCLUDE A PRE-FIRST PERIOD FOR THE LATE
DAY SCATTERED STORMS WITH RAIN CHANCES ENDING AFTER MIDNIGHT. LOWS
WILL REACH THE LOW/MID 70S LATE TONIGHT.

SUNDAY...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AXIS WILL CONTINUE TO REMAIN JUST SOUTH
OF THE AREA TOMORROW WITH S/SW FLOW CONTINUING OVER THE AREA.
WEAKENED SHORTWAVE TROUGH ALOFT WILL MOVE INTO SOUTH FLORIDA SO WILL
LOSE UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT FOR LIFT IN AFT. HOWEVER SLOW INLAND
MOVEMENT OF THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE WILL CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO
GENERATE ISO/SCT SHRA/TSRA IN THE AFT WITH SEA BREEZE COLLISION ONCE
AGAIN EXPECTED CLOSER TO THE EAST COAST LATE IN THE DAY. TEMPS WILL
BE QUITE HOT TOMORROW...ESPECIALLY OVER THE INTERIOR AND ALONG THE
COAST WHERE THE SEA BREEZE BOUNDARY IS DELAYED. HIGHS IN THESE AREAS
WILL REACH THE MID/UPPER 90S WITH LOW 90S ALONG THE TREASURE/SRN
BREVARD COASTS.

SUNDAY NIGHT-MONDAY...SFC/LOW LEVEL RIDGE WILL REMAIN ACROSS
SOUTHERN HALF OF AREA THROUGH PERIOD. EAST COAST SEA BREEZE
EVOLUTION WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP FIRST ALONG THE TREASURE COAST
AND THEN NORTH OF THE CAPE LATER IN THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER BOTH GFS
AND ECMWF SHOW LOW/MID TROPOSPHERIC DRYING SPREADING INTO THE
REGION. THE NAM IS THE OUTLIER WITH HIGHER POPS ON MONDAY THAN
SUNDAY. WILL OPT FOR THE FORMER SOLUTION BASED ON SATELLITE TRENDS
AND GO FOR THE LOWER POPS. MAV/GFS GUIDANCE SUGGEST BLO 20 PCT...BUT
WILL KEEP 20 PCT OVER THE SOUTH IN ARE OF DEEPER MOISTURE. TEMPS TO
CONTINUE SOME 3 TO 5 DEGREES ABV CLIMO WITH RELATIVELY DRY AIR IN
PLACE.

TUE-SAT (PREV DISC)...SURFACE RIDGE AXIS SLOWLY SHIFTS UP TO NORTH
FLORIDA/SOUTH GEORGIA SATURDAY. TIME HEIGHT CROSS SECTION DOES NOT
BODE WELL FOR ANY SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION AS IT SHOWS SCANT
MOISTURE EVEN IN THE LOWEST LAYERS THROUGH THURSDAY. LIMITED
INCREASE IN THE LOWER LAYER MOISTURE FIELD FRIDAY AND SATURDAY BUT
THE EVEN 30 POP SUGGESTED BY THE EXTENDED MEX GUIDANCE MAY BE A BIT
GENEROUS.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDS WITH TEMPO IFR/MVFR IN SCT SHRA/TSRAS BEFORE
04Z. THEN PREDOMINANT VFR OVERNIGHT INTO SUN MORNING. STORM COVERAGE
EXPECTED TO BE SLIGHTLY LESS SUNDAY WITH LOSS OF UPPER LEVEL
SUPPORT. HOWEVER ISO/SCT CONVECTION WILL STILL BE ABLE TO DEVELOP
OVER THE AREA DURING THE AFT WITH TEMPO IFR/MVFR CONDS RETURNING.

&&

.MARINE...SOUTH WINDS UP TO 10-15 KTS WILL DECREASE AND BECOME
SOUTHWEST LATE TONIGHT. WILL THEN SEE WINDS SWITCH BACK TO THE SOUTH
BY TOMORROW AFT. SEAS WILL REMAIN AOB 3FT. CHANCES FOR OFFSHORE
MOVING STORMS LOOKS TO DECREASE TOMORROW AS STEERING FLOW BECOMES
MORE ONSHORE.

MON-WED...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AXIS WILL REMAIN OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL/SOUTH FLORIDA INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. WINDS OUT OF THE SOUTH
TO SOUTHWEST...EXCEPT SOUTHEAST ALONG THE COAST WHEN THE SEA BREEZE
DEVELOPS IN THE AFTERNOON. WIND SPEEDS 15 KTS OR LESS WITH SEAS 3
FEET OR LESS.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...SLOWER INLAND MOVEMENT OF THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE
AND HOT TEMPS IN THE AFT WILL ALLOW MIN RH VALUES TO FALL JUST BELOW
40% OVER A FEW INTERIOR AREAS SUNDAY. CONVECTIVE COVERAGE NOT
EXPECTED TO BE AS HIGH TOMORROW. HOWEVER WILL STILL SEE ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED LIGHTNING STORMS FORM OVER THE AREA LATER IN THE DAY.

MON-WED...LOWER POPS MON-WED WITH 20 OR LESS EACH DAY. TEMPERATURES
IN THE LOW TO MID 90S AND LITTLE IF ANY RAIN WILL RESULT IN
CONTINUED DRYING OF FUELS. AFTERNOON MINIMUM RH VALUES IN THE LOWER
40S FOR THE AREAS WEST OF INTERSTATE 4 TO THE MID 50S AT THE COAST
LOOKS TO BE THE ONLY BRIGHT SPOT FOR NOW.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

.THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
DAYTIME HEATING COUPLED WITH NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL LEVELS
OF ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE AND A WEAK UPPER LEVEL TROUGH DROPPING INTO
CENTRAL FLORIDA WILL RESULT IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
ACROSS THE AREA FROM THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY THIS EVENING.

A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA WILL PROVIDE A LIGHT
SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WIND FLOW. THIS SHOULD HOLD THE EAST COAST SEA
BREEZE CLOSER TO THE COAST AND BRING A CHANCE FOR AFTERNOON STORMS
TO THE SPACE AND TREASURE COASTS. THE GREATEST COVERAGE SHOULD OCCUR
OVER THE INTERIOR COUNTIES AND ALONG THE COAST FROM CAPE CANAVERAL
NORTH WHERE BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS WILL BE MORE NUMEROUS.

FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES...STRONG WIND GUSTS ABOVE 40 MPH...SMALL
HAIL AND VERY HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE EXPECTED WITH ISOLATED STRONG
STORMS. STORM MOTION WILL BE TOWARD THE NORTHEAST AT 10 TO 15 MPH.

.MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
SCATTERED AFTERNOON STORMS OVER LAND WILL MOVE NORTHEAST AT AROUND
10 TO 15 MPH WITH SOME MOVING ACROSS THE COAST BETWEEN FLAGLER BEACH
AND CAPE CANAVERAL. A FEW STORMS WILL BECOME STRONG WITH FREQUENT
LIGHTNING STRIKES AND WIND GUSTS OVER 35 KNOTS.

.FIRE WEATHER IMPACT...
DESPITE SOME HEAVY RAINFALL THIS WEEK...THERE ARE STILL VERY PARCHED
AREAS...WHICH WILL BE PARTICULARLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO NEW FIRE IGNITIONS
FROM LIGHTNING STRIKES AND RAPID SPREAD BY GUSTY THUNDERSTORM WINDS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.
THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY AFTERNOON WILL PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY
RAIN. THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE EACH AFTERNOON TUESDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTERS ARE REQUESTED TO MONITOR THE WEATHER AND SELF ACTIVATE IF
NEEDED.
