A weak cold front located across north central Florida moved slowly south into east-central Florida during the day. Increasing wind shear, strong daytime heating, ample moisture and cold temperatures in the middle atmosphere led to the development of numerous strong thunderstorms across the Florida peninsula. West to southwest winds pushed these storms towards the east coast, once there many of them produced strong winds along the Brevard and Martin County coast.
