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 Miami, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Mar 25, 12:56 PM EST, 47 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL 156 PM EDT FRI MAR 25 2016 .AVIATION... WHILE THERE IS A GENERAL LACK OF CONVECTION ACROSS THE PENINSULA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...CONDITIONS FOR ACTIVE CONVECTION ARE FAVORABLE ACROSS THE PENINSULA AND ADJACENT WATERS LATER THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS. WHILE LATEST MESO-SCALE MODELS HAVE BEEN SOMEWHAT ERRATIC...ALL SOLUTIONS CONTINUE TO FAVOR CONVECTION ACROSS THE EASTERN PENINSULA THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. IN ADDITION...THERE ARE NUMEROUS LINGERING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM EARLIER CONVECTION THIS MORNING AND THAT MAKES THE FORECAST MORE UNCERTAIN. FOR TERMINAL KAPF...GUIDANCE SUGGESTS LACK OF CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING BUT MID TO UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVES CONTINUE TO INITIATE CONVECTION ACROSS THE EASTERN GULF AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES COULD PROPAGATE ACROSS THE GULF WEST OF TERMINAL. LASTLY...LATEST GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT ADDITIONAL CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY IS LIKELY AFTER 00Z AND INCLUDED IN TAF'S WITH VCTS ASSIGNED ALL TERMINALS. SHORT PERIODS OF IFR CONDITIONS MAY BE POSSIBLE WITH OCCURRENCE OF HEAVY SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS. 60 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1056 AM EDT FRI MAR 25 2016/ UPDATE... CURRENTLY THERE IS A LULL FROM THE VERY ACTIVE PERIOD OF CONVECTION AND WIDESPREAD SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THAT IMPACTED PORTIONS OF THE PENINSULA AND REGIONAL WATERS EARLIER IN THE MORNING. CURRENTLY THE ONLY ACTIVE AREA IS AN AREA OF HEAVY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE OFF SHORE ATLANTIC WATERS...MAINLY TO THE EAST OF BISCAYNE BAY. THE FORECAST FOR THIS AFTERNOON CONTINUES TO REMAIN SOMEWHAT UNCERTAIN. HOWEVER...EVEN THOUGH CONVECTION EARLIER THIS MORNING MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO SOME STABILIZATION THERE IS CLEARING ACROSS MUCH OF THE PENINSULA WHICH WILL ALLOW DAY TIME HEATING TO DRIVE CONVECTION. PLUS THE 12Z SOUNDING INDICATED A PWAT OF ABOUT 1.9 INCHES. IN ADDITION IT APPEARS THAT ARE SHORT WAVES AT THE MID TO UPPER LEVELS IN THE CENTRAL TO EASTERN GULF. RECENT HRRR RUNS ARE SOMEWHAT VARIABLE FROM RUN TO RUN...BUT CONTINUES TO SUGGEST THAT CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE MAINLY ACROSS THE EASTERN PENINSULA AND LAKE REGION LATER THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. LASTLY...THERE IS A CLUSTER OF CONVECTION/THUNDERSTORMS IN THE EASTERN GULF WITH AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY PROPAGATING EASTWARD WELL WEST OF TAMPA BAY. GIVEN ALL THESE FACTORS...WILL CONTINUE WITH REGIONAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING WITH A FEW STRONG THUNDERSTORMS AND AN ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POSSIBLE. 60 PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 825 AM EDT FRI MAR 25 2016/ AVIATION... VERY ACTIVE AREAS OF CONVECTION/THUNDERSTORMS EARLIER THIS MORNING IS NOW EAST OF BISCAYNE BAY ALTHOUGH ANOTHER AREA OF ACTIVE CONVECTION/THUNDERSTORMS IS ABOUT 10-20 MILES WEST OF TERMINAL KAPF AND ASSIGNED VCTS. FOR THE SHORT TERM...THE CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS JUST WEST OF KAPF WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EASTWARD WITH A TEMPO GROUP CURRENTLY WITH SHOWERS...WILL AMEND WITH TSRA AS NEEDED. FOR THE ATLANTIC COAST TERMINALS...WITH SOUTH TO SOUTH SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE REGION THE FAVORED AREA OF CONVECTION WILL BE ACROSS THE EASTERN THIRD OF THE PENINSULA AROUND/AFTER 18Z WITH ALL ATLANTIC TERMINALS ASSIGNED VCTS AT 18Z. TEMPO GROUP ASSIGNED TO TERMINAL KPBI AT 19Z WITH CONVECTION ACROSS LAKE REGION AND EASTWARD FORECAST. MORE UNCERTAIN FOR THE REMAINING ATLANTIC TERMINALS...BUT LATEST MESO-SCALE MODELS INDICATE CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE AROUND 19-20Z. VERY SHORT PERIODS OF IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WITH HEAVY SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS. 60 PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 418 AM EDT FRI MAR 25 2016/ DISCUSSION... TODAY...THE ONGOING CONCERN THROUGH DAYBREAK WILL BE THE EVOLUTION OF THE MCS REMNANTS NOW MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL FL AS A DYING SQUALL LINE. OVERALL INTENSITIES HAVE DROPPED OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS, WITH ONLY A FEW EMBEDDED STORMS AS IT MAKES ITS WAY INTO GLADES COUNTY AND LAKE OKEECHOBEE. THERE IS ALSO A DECENT SWATH OF RAIN COOLED AIR BEHIND THIS LINE WITH STRATIFORM RAIN. DESPITE THE TIME OF NIGHT, WARM TEMPERATURES AND DEWPOINTS ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA WILL PROVIDE ENOUGH SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY AUGMENTING THE SUPPORTIVE DYNAMICS OF THE 70-80KT JET CROSSING THE PENINSULA AND SHORTWAVE. EXPECT THE LINE OF SHOWERS, AND A STORM OR TWO, WILL MOVE INTO GLADES, HENDRY, COLLIER, AND PALM BEACH BEFORE DAYBREAK BEFORE DIMINISHING RAPIDLY AS IT MOVES FURTHER AWAY FROM ITS PARENT MCS. SEPARATELY, A LARGE CLUSTER OF STRONG STORMS HAS DEVELOPED OVER THE LOWER KEYS AND FLORIDA BAY THAT IS NOW TRACKING NE TOWARDS THE MAINLAND AS IT TURNS INTO THE FLOW. THIS CLUSTER, OR AN OUTFLOW, IS EXPECTED TO CROSS MAINLAND MONROE AND MIAMI-DADE THROUGH DAYBREAK OR JUST AFTERNOON. THE EVOLUTION OF THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY BECOMES A LITTLE MORE UNCERTAIN DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH AND HOW LONG CLOUD COVER FROM THIS ONGOING ACTIVITY LINGERS AND WHERE THE VARYING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES END UP. THERE WILL LIKELY BE A LULL IN PRECIP INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON AS WE SEE SURFACE COOLING BEHIND THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AND SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE CURRENT SHORTWAVE BEFORE THE NEXT (ALREADY VISIBLE ON SATELLITE) APPROACHES LATER THIS AFTERNOON. WITH DIURNAL HEATING, AFTERNOON SEA BREEZE DEVELOPMENT, AND A COLD POCKET ALOFT /-11 TO -12 AT H5/ MOVING OVERHEAD WITH THE NEXT SHORTWAVE, THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND STORMS. STEERING FLOW WILL FOCUS ACTIVITY TOWARDS LAKE OKEECHOBEE/PALM BEACH/NE BROWARD WITH TIME. STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SMALL HAIL, FREQUENT LIGHTNING, AND STRONG WIND GUSTS. ALL OF SOUTH FLORIDA REMAINS UNDER A MARGINAL RISK FOR SEVERE STORMS. THIS WEEKEND...MODELS ARE SHOWING A SMALL INCREASE IN MID LEVEL RIDGING SAT AND SUN OVER SOUTH FLORIDA, ALLOWING FOR SOME DRY AIR ADVECTION AND A SLIGHT WARMING IN MID LEVEL TEMPS. THE OVERALL CHANGES ARE SUBTLE, BUT THE NET RESULT IS A NORTHWARD SHIFT IN THE STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND SURFACE CONVERGENCE BACK INTO N FL/S GA, LOW LEVEL WINDS BACKING MORE E-SE, AND THE TRACK OF THE UPPER LEVEL WAVES AND THEREFORE THE BEST DYNAMICS NORTH OF SOUTH FLORIDA. HOWEVER, THE OVERALL ATMOSPHERE REMAINS VERY WARM AND MOIST, ESPECIALLY AT THE SURFACE WHICH IN COMBINATION WITH THE SEA BREEZES WILL PROVIDE ENOUGH OPPORTUNITY FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS IN THE AFTERNOON. OVERALL COVERAGE MAY BE A LITTLE LOWER BOTH DAYS THAN THURS OR FRI, WITH MOST ACTIVITY LIKELY TOWARDS THE LAKE AND OVER THE INTERIOR WITH AFTERNOON/EVENING SEA BREEZE COLLISION. MID LEVEL DRYING MAY ALSO HELP ENHANCE STRONG WIND THREAT FOR THOSE STORMS THAT DO DEVELOP, ESPECIALLY ALONG BOUNDARY COLLISIONS. AFTERNOON HIGHS REMAIN VERY WARM IN THE MID-UPPER 80S, THOSE THE INCREASE IN EASTERLY FLOW MAY KEEP THE IMMEDIATE EAST COAST METRO IN THE LOW 80S ON SUN. MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... NOT MUCH CHANGE IN THE ONGOING FORECAST OR OUTLOOK AS STRONGER UPPER LEVEL WAVE MOVING THROUGH THE TN/OH VALLEY KICKS OFF A NEW SURFACE LOW THAT TRACKS THROUGH THE MID- ATLANTIC ON MONDAY. THIS WILL BRING THE SURFACE FRONT BACK INTO THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN FL PENINSULA ON MONDAY, BEFORE IT STALLS OUT. THERE MAY BE SOME DRYING WED OR THURS AS THE FRONT WASHES OUT, BUT MAGNITUDE AND TIMING ARE UNCLEAR ENOUGH THAT AT LEAST ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL REMAIN IN THE FORECAST THROUGH NEXT WEEK. MARINE...SOUTHERLY WINDS 1-150KTS TODAY ENHANCED BY AFTERNOON SEA BREEZES BECOMING MORE SE OVER THE ATLANTIC WATERS AND S-SW OVER THE GULF. WINDS BACK MORE E-SE OVER ALL THE WATERS FOR THE WEEKEND WITH SPEEDS CONTINUING AROUND 10-15KTS. APPROACH OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY INTO MONDAY WILL BRING WINDS AROUND TO THE WEST-SOUTHWEST BY LATE IN THE DAY. SEAS GENERALLY 1 TO 3 FEET. THE MAIN BOATING CONCERN WILL CONTINUE TO BE SHOWERS AND FEW THUNDERSTORMS. FREQUENT CLOUD TO WATER LIGHTNING STRIKES AND GUSTY WINDS ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH FLORIDA. .DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT THUNDERSTORMS: SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA, MAINLY DURING THE AFTERNOON BUT ALSO POSSIBLE AT ANY TIME. SOME OF THE STORMS WILL BE STRONG WITH WIND GUSTS OVER 40 MPH AND SMALL HAIL, WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STORMS TO REACH SEVERE LEVELS WITH DAMAGING WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH OR HIGHER. THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR THE STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE FROM THE LAKE OKEECHOBEE AREA SOUTH TO THE PALM BEACHES AND NORTHERN BROWARD COUNTY. WIND: GUSTS OF 40 TO 50 MPH ARE POSSIBLE WITH ANY OF THE STORMS TODAY ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA. THE STRONGEST STORMS HAVE THE POTENTIAL OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS OF 60 MPH OR GREATER, MAINLY FROM THE LAKE OKEECHOBEE AREA SOUTH TO THE PALM BEACHES AND NORTHERN BROWARD COUNTY. HAIL: SMALL HAIL IS POSSIBLE WITH ANY OF THE STORMS ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA. FLOODING: HEAVY RAINFALL IS EXPECTED TO CAUSE LOCALIZED FLOODING OF STREETS AND POORLY DRAINED AREAS ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTH FLORIDA, WITH THE GREATEST LIKELIHOOD FROM THE BROWARD AND PALM BEACH COUNTY METRO AREAS TO AROUND LAKE OKEECHOBEE. WATERSPOUTS: THUNDERSTORMS MAY SPAWN WATERSPOUTS OVER THE GULF AND ATLANTIC WATERS THROUGH TONIGHT. RIP CURRENTS: THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS AT THE ATLANTIC BEACHES TODAY, ALONG WITH A SLIGHT RISK AT THE GULF COAST BEACHES. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY SCATTERED MAINLY AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED THIS WEEKEND THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. THE GREATEST COVERAGE OF STORMS IS EXPECTED TO BE ON SATURDAY AROUND AND WEST OF LAKE OKEECHOBEE WHERE SOME STORMS COULD REACH STRONG TO SEVERE LEVELS WITH DAMAGING WINDS POSSIBLE, ALONG WITH HAIL AND LOCALIZED FLOODING. THE FOCUS FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MAINLY OVER THE INTERIOR OF THE PENINSULA SUNDAY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK, WITH THE MAIN THREATS BEING OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING STRIKES, GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL LEADING TO MINOR FLOODING. THE RIP CURRENT RISK WILL REMAIN SOMEWHAT ELEVATED AT THE ATLANTIC BEACHES THIS WEEKEND AS WINDS REMAIN OUT OF THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST, WITH A DECREASING RISK EARLY NEXT WEEK. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED. INDIVIDUAL SPOTTERS ARE ALWAYS ENCOURAGED TO REPORT HIGH WIND, HAIL AND FLOODING TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICE IN MIAMI.
