It resulted in several long stretches of record breaking high temperatures. Melbourne had 22 days, Orlando had 12 days and Daytona Beach had 13 days where high temperature records were either tied or broken. Melbourne had four 100 degree or greater days. Orlando had three and Daytona Beach had nine. It was also very dry during this period. Melbourne received only 3 percent of its normal rainfall. Orlando received 22 percent and Daytona received 14 percent. On June 24th a 38 year old Orlando man was found unconscious on the ground next to his bicycle.
