An area of low pressure developed along a weak frontal boundary over the eastern Gulf of Mexico late in the week and stretched across the northern Florida Peninsula during the weekend. In combination with anomalously high atmospheric moisture and onshore flow, this low helped produce numerous showers and thunderstorms that caused very high rainfall rates and slow moving storms. In some cases, areas received several rounds of heavy rainfall over the course of a few days. This resulted in some areas receiving as over 11 inches of rain between the 24th and 27th, with both areal flooding and river flooding reported. One fatality occurred with the residual flooding in Pinellas County on the 29th.
