A weak front extended across NE FL from a broad surface low near the NE FL Atlantic coast. A moist and unstable airmass under cooler than normal 500 mb temperatures (-8 degC) triggered strong to pulse severe storms and localized flooding where sea breeze, outflows and boundaries merged near and south of the frontal zone under very weak steering flow.
