Episode narrativeepisode_narrative	Central Florida was wedged between a high pressure ridge axis to the south, and a weak low pressure trough to the north. This resulted in strong west flow in the low-levels across east central Florida, and allowed deep moisture to remain in place across the area with Precipitable Water values near 2 inches. Scattered showers and thunderstorms developed during the afternoon and evening hours, mainly along the quickly progressing west coast sea breeze. The strong west winds delayed the development of the east coast sea breeze by a few hours, but by mid-afternoon the sea breeze had developed in Brevard County. Showers and thunderstorms began to develop along the slowly advancing sea breeze. Further south, in Indian River County, a thunderstorm there produced a northward moving outflow boundary that pushed into Brevard County and interacted with the sea breeze. This caused enhanced lift just along the sea breeze over Melbourne, and a severe thunderstorm quickly developed. This storm produced a severe wind gust in Melbourne Beach. In Port Orange, a home was destroyed after being struck by lightning and catching fire.
Event narrativeevent_narrative	Per a report received from a local broadcast media: a Port Orange home caught fire and was destroyed after being struck by lightning. The home located on Stewart Avenue, north of Taylor Road, was fully engulfed by flames when fire fighters arrived on scene. The blaze began in the garage area of the home and burned two vehicles before spreading to the rest of the property. The homeowner was working in his shed in the backyard when the lightning strike occurred, though he was uninjured. When Florida Power and Light inspected the home after the blaze, they found the plastic meter was melted and hanging off, another sign the home was struck by lightning. Unfortunately, the owner's two pet cats were killed in the blaze.
