The radar

The Miami radar (KAMX), 121 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 21:01 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

Tampa Bay, FL (KTBW), launched 12:00Z, 9.0 hours before the alert went out and 198 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.

through the overnight hours with widely scattered showers and
thunderstorms possible across the Atlantic coastal waters and
adjacent coastal counties near daybreak. Overnight lows to range

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday night through next Tuesday)

An upper-low across Florida to migrate north into the southeast
CONUS, eventually being absorbed by more pronounced upper-low
translating west from the Bahamas. This progression of upper-level

seabreeze convection each day through the weekend into early next
week.

Temperatures to range from the upper 80s to lower 90s each day
with overnight lows around 70.

&&

&&

.BEACHES...
Issued at 154 PM EDT Wed Jun 25 2025
