The wider storm

A surface front was shifting south across Georgia with a surge in moist WSW flow off of the Gulf of Mexico under a passing short wave trough and bulk shear of 20-25 kts. Intrusion of drier air from the NW exacerbated DCAPE values well over 1000 J/kg and supported strong downburst winds in scattered severe storms that developed across NE FL in the evening.

Began near Rattlesnake (30.0400, -81.8200).
