What happened

The episode as NWS TAE wrote it up.

More widespread severe weather occurred on June 16-17. Fairly typical isolated to scattered pulse severe storms occurred across the tri-state area on June 16th. However, a cold front moved southward on June 17th into a highly unstable airmass. A squall line developed ahead of the front and swept through the region, producing numerous reports of trees and power lines blown down.

What forecasters said that day

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 Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 16, 8:42 AM EST, 2 hours 32 minutes earlier.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tallahassee FL
942 AM EDT THU JUN 16 2016

.NEAR TERM [Through Today]...

A shortwave trough presents clearly on WV imagery this morning,
with its core over the Great Lakes region, though its reaches
extend well into the Southeast. At the surface, a subtle
front/trough extends through central SC & GA, into southern AL. A
12z hand analysis analyzed this boundary along a weak T/Td
gradient, and not very well defined in the wind/pressure fields.
Along this boundary, scattered showers and thunderstorms have
developed with gusty winds and heavy rain at times. Hires guidance
handling the current situation best suggests that the storms along
the front in GA will weaken over the next couple of hours, with
storms transitioning to north Florida along outflow or a weak
seabreeze front through mid-afternoon. Most guidance suggests
convection coming to an end before sunset today. Extensive cloud
cover should keep highs capped in the upper 80s to low 90s, though
heat indices could range from the mid 90s to near 100 degrees.

&&

.AVIATION [Through 12Z Friday]...

Generally MVFR conditions prevail along a weak boundary in light
showers. Elsewhere VFR prevails under a scattering of low, middle,
and high clouds. This afternoon, expect all terminals to reach VFR
outside of storms. At this time, widespread cig/vis restrictions
are not expected overnight.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION [555 AM EDT]...

.SHORT TERM [Tonight Through Saturday]...

A shortwave over the Ohio Valley tonight will dive SEWD through
the Mid-Atlantic region on Friday further amplifying the upper
trough along the Atlantic seaboard. As it does, it will scour out
the deep tropical moisture that has resided over the CWA the past
few days. There will still be ample moisture in the low levels
with westerly flow ahead of a cold front that will drop down from
the north and into our northernmost zones by late Friday afternoon
or early evening. An impressive ribbon of energy associated with
the shortwave, forcing along and ahead of the frontal boundary,
strong daytime heating (upper 90s) and ample moisture will
generate scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms. Models
suggest that this activity may not arrive in our northern zones
until mid to late afternoon gradually spreading southward to
impact the Florida zones toward evening. Thus, PoPs are tapered
highest north (60%) and lowest (30%) generally along and south of
I-10.

There is also a severe threat on Friday with this system and SPC
has highlighted all of our AL, GA, and northern tier Florida zones
with a slight risk. The remaining Florida zones are included in a
marginal risk. Instability ahead of the front will be moderate to
strong. ECAM guidance and forecast soundings show surface based
CAPE 2000+ across most our local area. Shear values with this
system are also impressive. The greatest severe threat will be
damaging straight line winds. Rain chances will diminish from
north to south on Saturday as the front slips southward through
the Tri-state region. Temperatures will be hot on Friday with
upper 90s inland and lower to mid 90s along the coast with heat
indices forecast to be in the 105-110F degree range. Saturday's
high will be in the upper 80s.

.LONG TERM [Saturday Night Through Thursday]...

Surface high pressure and a much drier airmass will build down
from the north Sunday through early next week in the wake of the
front. Temperatures will remain below seasonal levels through
Monday and then near normal (low 90s) through the remainder of
the period. Rain chances are forecast to be below climo for mid to
late June (30% or less).

.MARINE...

Moderate westerly winds will persist through Friday, with seas
generally from 2 to 4 feet. A front approaching the northeastern
Gulf will result in increased seas on Friday night, potentially
up to 5 or 6 feet. Winds will shift and become easterly during the
weekend, with seas decreasing to 2-3 feet.

.FIRE WEATHER...

A moist airmass will preclude red flag conditions for the next
several days.

.HYDROLOGY...

Locally heavy rainfall from scattered showers and thunderstorms over
the next several days could lead to localized flooding of low lying
and poor drainage areas, especially in urban locations.
However, significant rises on the local river system are not
anticipated from this activity.
