Sea breeze storms produced some minor wind damage in Flagler county.
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 Jacksonville, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 30, 1:25 PM EST, 4 hours 25 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jacksonville FL 225 PM EDT Fri Jun 30 2017 .NEAR TERM /Through Saturday/... Weak shortwave will pass just N of forecast area through Tonight with upper ridge remains over FL peninsula. Expecting scattered to numerous afternoon/evening showers and t-storms...with greatest coverage between I-75 and I-95 corridors where sea breezes converge...maintaining likely POP in this area til 00z along with s-ctrl GA where increased coverage possible closer to the shortwave...then a gradual decrease in hourly POP thru 06z. Low temps in mid 70s looks good. Saturday...another weak wave north of our area...with upper ridge over FL. Anticipate similar weather compared to today...with greatest late afternoon precipitation coverage between I-95 and Hwy 301. as well as interior se GA along possible surface trough. Consensus guidance supports high temp forecast in the lower 90s inland...near 90 coast. .SHORT TERM /Sunday and Monday/... Hot and humid conditions with scattered to numerous storms each afternoon and evening. Light pressure gradient at the surface will allow both seabreezes to push inland. Upper ridge axis will be positioned just south of the area, so the steering flow should push the storms back towards the Atlantic coast after the seabreezes collide and storms increase in intensity and coverage. The high moisture content and very unstable atmosphere will support a few strong to severe storms each afternoon. Merging cells will likely produce locally heavy rainfall, strong gusty winds, and frequent lightning strikes. Temperatures will check in just a little above normal for this time of year. .LONG TERM /Tuesday through Friday/... The summer-like pattern will persist into next week. A very moist and unstable airmass with a slight weakness in the subtropical ridge will help produce daily seabreeze storms over ne Fl/se Ga. Scattered storms will become numerous over the interior where the Gulf and Atlantic seabreeze fronts will merge by the early evening hours. Temperatures will be near or just slightly above average with above average storm chances for at least the first part of the week. The upper ridge may shift northward into our area Wednesday night into Thursday and this may draw up some drier air which would result in more normal thunderstorm chances on Thursday, especially across northeast Florida where drier air aloft is possible. && .AVIATION...Generally VFR conditions expected...except lower conditions associated with scattered to numerous afternoon/early evening SHRA/TSRA. Greatest coverage anticipated to be 20z-00z period as sea breezes converge over inland TAF sites. Heavy rain and gusty surface winds with storms. && .MARINE...Surface ridge of high pressure will remain just S of our waters...maintaining southerly 10-15kt winds and 2-4ft seas through early next week. .Rip Currents...Low risk expected through the weekend...but may be briefly enhanced in typical threat areas...by piers...particularly during afternoon sea breezes. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Thunderstorms will drift back toward the Atlantic coast this evening, with a gradual decrease in coverage and intensity through midnight. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday... Thunderstorms are possible each day. Locally heavy rainfall, gusty winds and frequent lightning will be possible in the strongest thunderstorms, mainly during the afternoon and evening.
