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 Jun 10, 1:42 PM EST, 3 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Melbourne FL 242 PM EDT Fri Jun 10 2022 .DISCUSSION... REST OF TODAY...Guid suggests primary area for showers and locally strong storms wl remain southward of the Clermont to New Smyrna Beach area, with activity focusing toward the Atlc coast and Lake Okeechobee by dusk and afterward. Main hazards wl be gusty winds to around 45 mph, and locally heavy rainfall-frequent lightning. Activity should diminish by around 10 PM over land while continuing offshore. Overnight low temperatures wl fall into the low to mid 70s. Some pre-dawn showers wl become possible over Lake county, and the western I-4 corridor early Saturday. from prev disc... Saturday-Sunday...The stalled frontal boundary across the Southeast will linger through the weekend, which combined with a mid level trough, will lead to increased rain chances Saturday (60%) and Sunday (40-60%). Southwesterly flow will continue advecting substantial moisture (model PWATs 2"+) and pushing afternoon highs to around 90. The flow regime favors an early onset of showers and thunderstorms inland, pushing northeastward through the afternoon, then colliding with the pinned east coast sea breeze in the evening. Strong storms will be possible, especially along the sea breeze collision, where model CAPE values are around 2000 J/kg and DCAPE values around 750 J/Kg. Combined with 500 mb temperatures around - 8C, strong winds and hail will possible. Stout flow will keep showers and storms moving to the northeast, limiting the flooding potential, but locations that receive multiple rounds and areas that have already seen substantial rainfall the last few days will be susceptible to localized flooding. Afternoon showers and storms will push offshore or dissipate late in the evening. Overnight lows in the low to mid 70s. Monday-Thursday...Mid level ridging will build into the Gulf of Mexico while at the surface extensive high pressure across the Atlantic will extend to Florida. This will bring rain chances back closer to climatology, around 20-40% mainly across the interior each afternoon then clearing around sunset. Winds will be generally southerly to light and variable, not favoring either sea breeze which will march inland and meet near the center of the state. The lack of steering flow will bring the risk of flooding back as storm motion will be slow and erratic. Temperatures creep up in the southerly flow, with afternoon highs reaching the mid 90s and heat indices pushing close to 100. Overnight lows will be in the low to mid 70s. && .AVIATION... More pronounced westerly flow wl keep showers and ocnl storms in the forecast along the E Coast into early tonight. Coverage should remain south of a KDAB-KLEE line into evening, gradually shift offshore aft 11/02Z. Primary threats remain lightning strikes, brief torrential rainfall, and gusty downburst winds. Light to calm winds tonight. Deep moisture lingers Sat with continued WRLY flow, possible early initiation again, with some strong storms and rather high overall coverage areawide. && .MARINE... Current-Tonight...W/SW winds into the overnight. Seas will range from 2-3 feet with some 4 foot seas possible well offshore tonight. Main concern for boaters will be scattered to numerous storms pushing offshore through late afternoon and early evening, producing lightning strikes and gusty winds. Saturday-Tuesday...A stalled frontal boundary will enhance inland rain chances (40-60%), which will be pushed offshore in the afternoon and evening by southwesterly flow 10-15 kts. Lightning storms scattered to numerous Saturday, isolated to scattered Sunday, and isolated to scattered Monday. Winds back to southerly around 10-15 kts Monday-Tue as high pressure builds across the Atlantic basin. Seas 2-3 feet. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Scattered to numerous lightning storms will develop from mid day into the afternoon, and move east to northeast up to 15 to 20 mph across east central Florida and offshore. Some stronger storms will be possible, especially southeast of the I-4 corridor toward Brevard County and the Treasure Coast this afternoon. Main storm threats will be the likelihood of frequent lightning, strong wind gusts up to 40 to 50 mph, and locally heavy downpours. .FLOOD IMPACT... Some stronger storms will be capable of producing locally heavy rainfall up to 1 to 3 inches in a short time frame. This could lead to minor flooding of roadways and poor drainage areas, especially southeast of the I-4 corridor where heavier rainfall has occurred over the past couple days. .RIP CURRENT IMPACT... There is a Moderate Risk of rip currents at area beaches. Always swim near a lifeguard and never enter the water alone. .MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT... Scattered to numerous lightning storms will push quickly eastward across inland lakes, and eventually offshore this afternoon and early evening. Some stronger storms will be capable of producing wind gusts near or in excess of 34 knots and frequent lightning. The areas of primary concern will be along the Brevard county and Treasure coast intracoastal waters, as well as the nearshore Atlantic waters. .WATERSPOUT IMPACT... A brief waterspout of two will be possible mainly near the Intracoastal waterway, or barrier islands of the Space and Treasure Coasts associated with developing storms during this afternoon. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY. Scattered to numerous afternoon and early evening lightning storms are expected through this weekend, with coverage decreasing slightly early next week. Stronger storms will be capable of producing strong gusty winds, frequent lightning strikes, and locally heavy rainfall. A Moderate Risk of rip currents is expected Saturday .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotters should monitor the weather and self activate if needed in the event of any warnings.
