The episode as NWS MLB wrote it up.
Strong thunderstorms developed in a warm and unstable environment ahead of a cold front over the eastern Gulf of Mexico. A severe thunderstorm produced quarter-sized hail in the city of Sanford.
The local office's own words before the first event, 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 the first event at May 1, 2:06 PM EST, 2 hours 29 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL 306 PM EDT THU MAY 1 2014 .DISCUSSION... ...HIGH RAIN CHANCES WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY THEN DRYING SUNDAY AND BEYOND... CURRENTLY-FRI...SEA BREEZE CONVECTION WAS A LITTLE SLOWER GETTING GOING COMPARED TO YESTERDAY BUT SLIGHTLY INCREASED DEEP LAYER FLOW WILL PUSH WEST COAST SEA BREEZE CONVECTION A LITTLE MORE QUICKLY ACROSS THE PENINSULA. AN EAST COAST SEA BREEZE DOES NOT LOOK LIKELY IN THE NORTH THOUGH...BUT STILL THERE WILL BE A CHANCE FOR STRONG STORMS DUE TO COOL/DRY AIR ALOFT AND THE INCREASED DEEP LAYER WINDS. SOUTHERN SECTIONS WILL HAVE A SEA BREEZE...THOUGH IT WILL NOT PUSH VERY FAR INLAND. WE MIGHT GET A ZIPPERING EFFECT WITH CONVECTION PROPAGATING DOWN THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE AS BOUNDARIES KICK OUT OF THE CONVECTION MOVING ACROSS THE NORTH. WITH THE BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS...EXPECT SOME OF THESE STORMS TO BE STRONG TOO. CONVECTION SHOULD CONTINUE A FEW HOURS AFTER SUNSET AS POCKETS OF INSTABILITY LINGER. OTHERWISE...A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL MOVE SLOWLY ACROSS THE EASTERN GULF TONIGHT AND SHOULD REACH INTO OUR NORTHERN SECTIONS ON FRI. PRE FRONTAL MOISTENING SHOULD KEEP AT LEAST A SMALL CHANCE OF POPS THROUGH THE NIGHT IN THE NORTH. THIS HIGHER MOISTURE THOUGH WILL RESULT IN MORE CLOUD COVER OVERSPREADING THE AREA ON FRI. SO WHILE LIKELY POPS WILL BE IN ORDER FOR NORTH/CENTRAL SECTIONS THEN...THE CHANCE FOR STRONG STORMS APPEARS A LITTLE LOWER COMPARED TO THE PAST FEW DAYS. THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF HEATING SHOULD OCCUR IN THE SOUTH AND THAT IS ALSO WHERE WE SHOULD GET THE MOST DEFINED SEA BREEZE... SO THE STRONGEST STORMS MIGHT OCCUR THERE. SAT...QUASI STATIONARY FRONT IS FORECAST TO BE DRAPED ACROSS CENTRAL FLORIDA EARLY. LARGE SCALE ASCENT FROM SOUTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND RIGHT REAR QUADRANT OF JET COUPLED WITH HIGH MOISTURE WILL PROVIDE RATHER HIGH POPS. EXPECT THAT WE WILL GET A RATHER GENEROUS COVERAGE OF ONE HALF INCH TO ONE INCH RAINFALL. AS THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH DAMPENS OUT AND JET AXIS SAGS OVER CENTRAL FLORIDA SAT NIGHT...THE FRONT WILL SHIFT SOUTHEAST AND DRYING IS FORECAST TO WORK IN FROM THE NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST. SOME SLIGHT ADJUSTMENTS TO THE POPS WERE MADE AS THE MODELS LOOK TO BE IN DECENT AGREEMENT WITH THIS SCENARIO. CLOUD COVER AND RAIN COOLING WILL KEEP HIGH TEMPS IN THE MID-UPPER 70S IN THE NORTH AND LOWER 80S SOUTH. SUN-WED (PREVIOUS DISCUSSION)...BOTH GFS AND ECMWF ARE PUSHING THE FRONT SOUTH A LITTLE QUICKER SO WILL REMOVE RAIN CHANCES FOR SUNDAY. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH SIGNIFICANT DRYING THROUGH A DEEP LAYER. SO EXPECT MOSTLY SUNNY DAYS AND MOSTLY CLEAR NIGHTS. TEMPERATURES SUNDAY MORNING LOOK THE COOLEST... FALLING INTO THE UPPER 50S ORLANDO NORTHWARD. HIGHS SUNDAY IN THE LOWER 80S. TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY WARM INTO MID WEEK BACK INTO THE UPPER 80S/NR 90 INTERIOR AND MID 80S COAST WHICH IS SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL. && .AVIATION... BAND OF CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE PENINSULA THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING...AFFECTING KISM-KMCO-KTIX NORTHWARD. THERE WILL BE A CHANCE OF STRONG STORMS WITH GUSTY WINDS 30-40 KNOTS...FREQUENT LIGHTNING AND A BRIEF PERIOD OF IFR AS THE STORMS MOVE THROUGH. THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE SHOULD GENERATE ISOLATED STORMS KMLB-KSUA BUT THERE ALSO COULD BE ADDITIONAL STRONG STORMS PROPAGATING DOWN THE SEA BREEZE THROUGH LATE EVENING. SOME LATE NIGHT STRATUS MAY OCCUR NORTH OF KISM-KMCO-KTIX ALONG WITH SOME PRE FRONTAL SHOWERS. ON FRI...WIDESPREAD MVFR CLOUDINESS IS EXPECTED KISM-KMCO-KTIX NORTHWARD ALONG WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. A LITTLE MORE HEATING SHOULD OCCUR TO THE SOUTH AND KMLB-KSUA MIGHT HAVE THE GREATEST CHANCE FOR STRONG AFTERNOON STORMS. && .MARINE... TONIGHT-FRI...SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE AHEAD OF SLOW MOVING FRONTAL BOUNDARY. SPEEDS LOOK MAINLY 10-15 KNOTS. SOME STRONG STORMS WILL LIKELY BE MOVING OFFSHORE THIS EVENING. THE GREATEST CHANCE FOR STRONG AFTERNOON STORMS MOVING OFFSHORE ON FRI SHOULD BE FROM CANAVERAL SOUTH. WEEKEND...FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHOULD EXTEND DOWN TO ABOUT CANAVERAL EARLY SAT THEN SLIDE SOUTHEAST OF THE WATERS BY SUNDAY MORNING. A HIGH COVERAGE OF SHOWERS WITH ISOLATED STORMS IS ANTICIPATED SAT WITH THE FRONT NEARBY AND AS A SHORTWAVE TROUGH ALOFT INCREASES LARGE SCALE ASCENT. SO IN ADDITION TO 10-15 KNOT NORTHERLY FLOW IN THE NORTH...IT LOOKS ON THE WET SIDE THERE AND INTO THE SOUTH AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY SAGS THROUGH THE WATERS. CONDITIONS LOOK DRY ON SUNDAY THOUGH 10-15 KNOT NORTH/NORTHEAST FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT WILL PROVIDE LESS THAN IDEAL CONDITIONS FOR SMALL BOATS IN THE GULF STREAM. MON-TUE...A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE IS FORECAST TO SET UP EAST/WEST ACROSS THE WATERS WITH AN ONSHORE WIND FLOW INDICATED 10 KNOTS OR LESS. && .MLB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... FL...NONE.

STORM MOTION WILL BE TOWARD THE NORTH TO NORTHEAST AROUND 15 TO 20 MPH. .WATERSPOUT IMPACT... WATERSPOUTS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...PARTICULARLY WITH ANY STORMS THAT MOVE OFFSHORE OF THE VOLUSIA AND BREVARD COUNTY COASTLINES. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. A STATIONARY BOUNDARY OVER THE AREA WILL PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR HIGH COVERAGE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS THROUGH SATURDAY. A FEW STRONG STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE AND STORMS WILL PRODUCE HEAVY RAIN WHICH MAY CAUSE MINOR FLOODING. WINDS WILL INCREASE OVER THE ATLANTIC WATERS SATURDAY NIGHT BEHIND THE BOUNDARY. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... SPOTTERS ARE REQUESTED TO MONITOR THE WEATHER AND SELF ACTIVATE IF NEEDED.
