The wider storm

A pre-frontal line of strong to severe storms moved across NE FL and SE GA during the afternoon and pressed offshore of the Atlantic coast into the evening. Surface based CAPEs rose up to 1000 J/kg over parts of the Suwannee Valley and inland SE GA. This instability shifted east across the remainder of NE FL into the evening coinciding with elevated moisture and dynamics that produced a few severe storms and also 2 confirmed tornadoes.

Began near Ellerbee (30.1300, -82.2800).
