What the National Weather Service wrote

The Gainesville Regional Airport measured 3.99 inches of daily total rainfall, much of which occurred in the evening. This was a new record daily rainfall.

The wider storm

A surface front was stalled across north Florida with moist, unstable southwest flow off of the Gulf of Mexico south of the front. This airmass combined with frontal lift and sea breeze forcing triggered locally heavy rainfall and isolated strong to severe storms across portions of NE FL.
