A strong cold front moved across central Florida producing several reports of damaging winds. A powerful storm system was moving across much of the Southeastern U.S. as high amounts of instability and moisture aided in the development of numerous thunderstorms along a cold front. Winds just off the ground were strong - in excess of 60-70 mph and the thunderstorms that developed tapped into these strong winds and brought them down to the surface. Numerous thunderstorms developed across the area, in addition to the storms associated with the cold front. These storms affected a large part of the east central Florida coast, producing strong winds along the Volusia, Brevard, St. Lucie and Martin County coasts.
