The radar

The Melbourne radar (KMLB), 26 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 19:53 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, 7.9 hours before the alert went out and 62 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.

NWS Melbourne, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 31, 3:35 PM EDT, 16 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 31, 3:35 PM EDT, 16 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL
335 PM EDT FRI JUL 31 2015

.DISCUSSION...

REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON/TONIGHT...AS EXPECTED...THE LARGE SCALE
OUTFLOW PRODUCED A BAND OF FAST MOVING STORMS WHICH TRAVERSED ACROSS
THE BREADTH OF THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE CWA THROUGH MID AFTERNOON.
BRIEF WIND GUSTS IN THE 35-45 MPH RANGE WERE COMMON...ESPECIALLY AS
AREAL COVERAGE INCREASED ALONG THE BDRY ONCE IT APPROACHED THE
COAST. ANOTHER LARGE CLUSTER OF STRONG STORMS HAS FORMED NORTH OF
LAKE OKEE...WHILE MORE STORMS ARE WEST OF THE KISM RIVER APPROACHING
OSCEOLA CO ATTM. SEVERAL OUTFLOW INTERACTIONS WILL TAKE PLACE ALONG
AND SOUTH OF A LAKE KISM-KMLB LINE...WITH ADDITIONAL STRONG STORMS
EXPECTED THERE. TO THE NORTH...ACTIVITY GAS REDEVELOPED NEAR/EAST OF
THE NATURE COAST...HOWEVER INTENSITY MAY BE LIMITED DUE TO THE
ANTECEDENT STORMS FROM EARLY AFTERNOON.

EXPECT DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION /SCT SHRA AND A FEW STORMS / TO
LINGER A FEW HRS PAST SUNSET. SULTRY WSW FLOW COUPLED WITH MID LVL
TROUGH LINGERING OVHD COULD LEAD TO ISOLD NOCTURNAL SHOWERS...
ESPECIALLY FROM SOME GOMEX ACTIVITY REACHING LAKE CO/KISM VLY RGN.

THIS WEEKEND...LOW LEVEL PRES/WIND/MOISTURE PATTERN WILL REMAIN
STAGNANT...WITH LOW-MID LEVEL SSW TO SW FLOW AND A RIBBON OF VERY
HIGH PWATS CONTINUING ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND NRN CWA. SOME VERY SLGT
H50 HGT RISES OCCUR IN THE PERSISTENT WEAKNESS ACROSS FL...AND THE
H25 NE WIND MAX WILL REPOSITION ITSELF A LITTLE FARTHER SE TO THE
NW QUADRANT OF A DEVELOPING TUTT LOW WHICH WILL BE RETROGRADING WWD
TO OUR SOUTH NEXT WEEK.

PATTERN WILL KEEP ANOMALOUSLY HIGH (NMRS/LIKELY CAT) RAIN CHCS IN
PLACE WITH DIURNAL SHOWER/STORMS PUSHING EWD/OFFSHORE AT A FAIRLY
RAPID CLIP DURING THE AFTERNOON/VERY EARLY EVENING. TEMPS SHOULD
REMAIN NEAR TO A BIT ABOVE CLIMO.

MON-FRI (PREVIOUS)...THE SFC RIDGE IS FORECAST TO MOVE GRADUALLY
NORTH FROM AROUND LAKE OKEECHOBEE MONDAY TO TAMPA TO MELBOURNE BY
WED. SLOW DECREASE IN DEEP MOISTURE IS FORECAST ACROSS SOUTHERN
SECTIONS EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE MOISTURE RIBBON LIFTS NORTH OF THE
RIDGE AXIS ACROSS THE NRN PENINSULA INTO MID WEEK. WILL CONTINUE
LIKELY SHOWER/STORMS CHANCES NRN SECTIONS FOR MONDAY BEFORE LOWERING
ALL AREAS TO THE SCATTERED RANGE 30-50 PCT FOR TUE/WED. SHOULD SEE
NRN INTERIOR SECTIONS FAVORED FOR TUE AND WED WITH AFTERNOON AND
LATE DAY BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS EXPECTED ACROSS THE INTERIOR. FOR THU
INTO FRI...ANOTHER 500 MB SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS FORECAST TO MOVE SE
FROM AL/GA TWD N FL. THIS WILL SLOWLY PUSH THE SFC RIDGE BACK SOUTH
AND SET UP WESTERLY MID LAYER FLOW ALOFT. MOISTURE AHEAD OF THE NEXT
TROUGH SHOULD ALLOW FOR SCATTERED STORMS FOR LATE WEEK WITH RAIN
CHANCES IN THE 40-50 PCT RANGE.

&&

.AVIATION...SOME DEVELOPMENT OF SHRA ACTIVITY HAS OCCURRED NEAR AND
WEST OF THE WRN AERODROMES IN THE WAKE OF THE FAST-MOVING EARLY
AFTERNOON OUTFLOW BDRY. HOWEVER THIS ACTIVITY IS MUCH WEAKER THAN
THE EARLIER ACTIVITY. MAIN THREAT FOR STORMS THROUGH ABOUT 22-23Z
LOOKS TO BE  OVER THE MLB-SUA CORRIDOR.

LOOK FOR REPEAT PERFORMANCES OF TODAY'S CONVECTIVE REGIME/PATTERN
THOUGH THIS WEEKEND...AND POSSIBLY MONDAY TO SOME EXTENT.

&&

.MARINE...

THIS WEEKEND...S/SW WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 10-15KT NEAR SHORE AND UP
TO 15-20 KNOTS OFFSHORE WITH SEAS 2-3FT NEAR SHORE AND UP TO 4FT
OFFSHORE NORTH OF SEBASTIAN INLET. HIGH COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND
STORMS EXPECTED ONCE AGAIN...MOVING OFF THE MAINLAND FROM EARLY AFTN
THROUGH A LITTLE PAST SUNSET. THREAT FOR STRONG STORMS WITH WIND
GUSTS NEAR/ABOVE 34 KNOTS AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING/LOCALLY HIGHER SEAS.

MON-WED (PREVIOUS)...THE SFC RIDGE WILL LIFT NWD TWD LAKE OKEECHOBEE
WITH S/SW WINDS DECREASING TO AROUND 10 KNOTS EARLY NEXT WEEK.
COVERAGE OF STORMS SHOULD DECREASE ACROSS THE SRN WATERS WITH SOME
STORMS STILL MOVING TWD THE COAST FROM BREVARD COUNTY NWD WHERE
DEEPEST MOISTURE WILL RESIDE.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

.THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
ONGOING SHOWERS STORMS ACROSS WEST FLORIDA WILL QUICKLY PUSH
EASTWARDS LATE THIS MORNING WITH ADDITIONAL LIGHTNING STORMS
DEVELOPING IN THE VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE ACROSS
CENTRAL FLORIDA. COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL INCREASE
ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS WITH NUMEROUS
BOUNDARY COLLISIONS.

SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPERATURES ALOFT TODAY WILL ALLOW FOR A FEW
STRONGER STORMS THAT MAY PRODUCE WIND GUSTS UP TO 50
MPH...ESPECIALLY ALONG ANY OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES OR COLLISIONS.
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ACTIVITY LATER THIS
AFTERNOON WHICH MAY LEAD TO PONDING OF WATER ALONG ROADWAYS AND
MINOR FLOODING OF LOW LYING AREAS.

.MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
DEVELOPING SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL AFFECT INLAND LAKES AND
WATERWAYS LATE THIS MORNING BEFORE MOVING QUICKLY OFF TO THE EAST-
NORTHEAST AT 15 TO 20 MPH AND OVER THE INTRACOASTAL AND NEARSHORE
ATLANTIC. ALL ACTIVITY TODAY WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING WIND
GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 34 KNOTS. MARINERS SHOULD REMEMBER THAT STRONG
WINDS MAY ARRIVE WELL AHEAD OF RAIN AND LIGHTNING.

.RIP CURRENT IMPACT...
A SMALL EASTERLY SWELL ALONG WITH THE FULL MOON WILL LEAD TO A
MODERATE THREAT FOR RIP CURRENTS NORTH OF CAPE CANAVERAL AND A LOW
THREAT ALONG THE BREVARD AND TREASURE COASTS. THE THREAT WILL BE
GREATEST FROM THROUGH MID TO LATE AFTERNOON DUE TO TIDAL EFFECTS.
ALWAYS SWIM NEAR A LIFEGUARD.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
A MOIST SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WIND FLOW WILL KEEP THE COVERAGE OF
AFTERNOON STORMS GREATER THAN NORMAL INTO THE WEEKEND AND EARLY
NEXT WEEK.

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