What the National Weather Service wrote

Multiple trees were blown down around west Palm Coast including near 160 Bayside Drive.

The wider storm

A surface low moved across north-Florida during the early morning hours as a warm front lifted up from central FL. Strong effective shear combined with marginal surface-based instability near the lifting warm front and surface low enabled rotating mini-supercells to form. Toward sunrise, enough low-level instability nosed inland from the Atlantic coast across Flagler County to support a couple of tornado touchdowns. Locally heavy rainfall occurred across northeast Florida, generally south of the I-10 corridor and toward the Atlantic coast.

Began near Indian Trails (29.5700, -81.2500).
