The local office's own words before this river flood 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 river flood warning went out at Oct 9, 8:05 PM EDT, 3 hours 9 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 9, 8:05 PM EDT, 3 hours 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Melbourne FL
Issued by National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX
805 PM EDT Wed Oct 9 2024
...New AVIATION...
.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFs)
Issued at 750 PM EDT Wed Oct 9 2024
Convection from Hurricane Milton continues to plague central FL
and will continue through at least 00Z Friday. VCTS and TEMPO for
TSRA are included with rain prevailing at all terminals. While
there are some brief VFR conditions, expect generally MVFR to IFR
ceilings for most, with LIFR ceilings in and around the center of
Milton overnight. Visibility will reduce to IFR/LIFR in and around
the heavier precipitation and stronger winds.
Winds are expected to ramp up tonight from west to east as the
center of Milton moves over central Florida. Current track puts
the center, where the highest wind speeds will be, over ISM and
TIX but last minute changes in track or winds are not only
possible, but likely. Conditions will be extremely dangerous
tonight and into Thursday.
&&
.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
Issued at 618 PM EDT Wed Oct 9 2024
Key Messages...
- Threat for a few additional tornadoes will continue through
this evening. Have multiple ways to receive warnings!
- Now is the time to shelter in place as conditions continue to
deteriorate!
- Life-threatening impacts from winds and flooding rainfall will
occur from Milton, especially through tonight and continuing
into Thursday as Milton crosses central Florida. Battering
surf and storm surge along portions of the coast will occur as
well.
Tonight-Thursday...Training bands of showers and storms ahead of
Milton's approach has led to several confirmed tornadoes, some
producing considerable damage, especially across the southern half
of east central FL. This band is slowly working it's way off the
east central Florida coast, and we should start to see the threat
of tornadoes decrease through late evening as dry slot works its
way into southern areas as Milton approaches. However, a few
tornadoes will continue to be possible through this evening, and
the Tornado Watch continues through 9 PM.
Milton will make landfall as a dangerous Major Hurricane along
the west central Florida coast later this evening, and it will
remain a hurricane while it moves across central Florida tonight
and exits off the east central Florida coast into Thursday
morning. Flooding rainfall threat will shift to across northern
portions of east central Florida into tonight as Milton crosses
the area and linger across this region into Thursday morning.
Rainfall totals of 6 to 12 inches is forecast, with a swath of 12
to 15 inches possible in vicinity of the I-4 corridor. This is
expected to produce flash flooding impacts and considerable river
flooding along the St. Johns River.
Hurricane Warnings remain in effect for all of east central Florida,
except Martin county, where a Hurricane Watch and Tropical Storm
Warning are in effect. Residents and visitors should shelter in
place through the storm as tropical storm conditions and
hurricane gusts will overspread the area as Milton crosses the
region, with hurricane gusts still expected to continue as the
center of Milton shifts offshore, especially along the coast into
Thursday. Large areas will likely experience significant power
outages and communications failures.
A Storm Surge Warning remains in effect for the coast of Brevard
and Volusia counties, with storm surge values up to 3-5 ft
forecast. Farther south along the Treasure Coast, surge values up
to 1-3 ft are expected to occur.
For additional details related to Hurricane Milton's impacts across
the area, please refer to the Hurricane Milton Local Statement.
Fri-Tue...(Previous Discussion) Milton will become extratropical
in the Atlc as it pushes further north/east away from the
peninsula. Cooler and drier air are forecast to push down the
peninsula, though we will see a gradual return of deeper moisture,
once again, Mon-Tue. Expect diminishing winds after a breezy/gusty
day on Fri and lower rain chances will result. We may still see
isolated- scattered (20-30pct) shower activity and perhaps an
isolated lightning storm as well on Fri, though it appears most
areas will remain dry - esp this weekend. Surface high pressure
will build into the Deep South and southeast U.S. on a weakening
trend, with a frontal boundary forecast to move into the area Mon
overnight or Tue. Highs for Fri, U70s to around 80F across the I-4
corridor and L80s southward. For Sat-Tue, max temps begin to
creep back toward the L80s and M80s. Lows more pleasant than
recent mornings, with min's cooler and in the M-U60s across the
interior and L70s at the coast. Some normally cooler locations
across the interior may realize L60s!
&&
.MARINE...
Issued at 618 PM EDT Wed Oct 9 2024
A Hurricane Warning remains in effect for the entire adjacent
Atlantic waters. Boating conditions will continue to deteriorate
becoming extremely dangerous tonight into Thursday as Milton
crosses central Florida and exits of the east central Florida
coast. Operators should remain in port. Widespread showers and
scattered storms will continue through tonight into Thursday as
Milton moves through. Strong northerly-component winds are
forecast to maintain dangerously high seas through at least Sat.
