The episode as NWS JAX wrote it up.
An outflow boundary pressed southward across SE GA and interested the pinned east coast sea breeze due to prevailing WNW steering flow. The mid levels were more stable compared to yesterday and drier as a mean layer 1000-700 mb ridge strengthened over the central FL panhandle.
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 23, 3:41 PM EST, 7 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jacksonville FL 441 PM EDT Sun Jun 23 2019 ...AFTERNOON HEAT INDICES AROUND 105 DEGREES... ...ISOLATED AFTERNOON STRONG STORMS POSSIBLE... .NEAR TERM (Through Monday night)... Less coverage of storms today due to drier and more stable air on the eastern side of a deep layer ridge building into the area in the wake of yesterday's upper short wave trough. There was a band of scattered storms moving Se across Se Ga out ahead of a stalled frontal boundary. These storms will continue to move Se the next few hours and produce locally heavy rain with strong and gusty winds. A few isolated showers or storms will also be possible along a weak seabreeze along the coast. Showers/storms will fade out in the evening after the loss of heating. Another hot and dry day in store for Monday with only a brief shower or storm possible as deep layer ridging continues over the area. Afternoon high temps expected to reach the the mid to upper 90s with afternoon heat indices around 105 degrees. .SHORT TERM (Tuesday-Wednesday night)... The deep layer ridge over the area will retrograde to the gulf coast with weak troughing developing over the area on the eastern periphery of the ridge. This results in a slight uptick in pops as weak disturbances will be riding around the periphery of the ridge and steering flow light enough for both east west seabreezes to merge inland producing isolated to scattered mainly afternoon and early evening storms. Strong daytime heating will result in some storms becoming strong and producing strong wind gusts. Hot afternoon temps in the mid to upper 90s combined with the humidity will produce afternoon heat indices of around 105 degrees each day. .LONG TERM (Thursday-Sunday)... Weak troughing will continue across the area through at least the end of the week until a deep layer western Atlantic ridge begins to build in. Moisture and instability in combination with seabreezes will help generate scattered mainly afternoon and evening storms each day. A slight down tick in temps but still averaging near to slightly above normal. && .AVIATION...Much drier and more stable today with inland westerly flow and winds expected to back SSE near the coast this afternoon as east coast sea breeze drifts inland across NE FL terminals. Stronger westerly flow over SE GA will keep the east coast sea breeze pinned along the coast at SSI. Included VCSH at GNV over the next few hours, then VCSH at VQQ, SGJ, CRG and JAX into the early evening. Best chance of TS will focus near SSI late afternoon and early evening where VCTS was advertised around 20Z. Rain chances decrease quickly this evening with a better chance of low stratus and shallow ground fog developing across inland NE FL late tonight due to high pressure building over the area and lingering low level moisture from todays spotty showers. Trended toward MVFR at GNV and VQQ after 07Z Sunday. Prevailing VFR conditions expected after low stratus lifts/erodes Sun morning with again prevailing westerly flow in the morning, then winds becoming onshore near the coast in the afternoon. && .MARINE...High pressure ridge south of the waters will move to the west of the waters though mid week providing light West to Northwest winds except for seabreezes along the coast in the afternoon and evening. A western Atlantic ridge will build in across the waters towards the end of the week with winds becoming southeast and increasing some by the end of the period although no headlines expected. Rip Currents: Low risk expected Monday. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
