Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. The National Weather Service names
Stuart, the town this property stands in, in 25 storm reports between 1993 and 2020: 8 hail, 7 thunderstorm wind, 2 tornado, 2 funnel cloud.
The reports record 1 injury. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
Lightning struck a boater near Stuart in the Indian River Lagoon. He was knocked unconscious and fell into the water. He was pulled back on the boat and revived by his wife.
Rains associated with distant Tropical Storm Barry in the Gulf of Mexico produced flooding across much of Martin County. About 13 inches of rain fell in the area between midnight and late morning on August 2nd. The most serious flooding occurred in Stuart, Port Salerno and Palm City. Over 300 homes received some water damage. Major damage was reported in 63 homes and 6 mobile homes.
A small tornado briefly touched down at the intersection of Dixie Highway and Indian Street in Stuart damaging the roof of a U-Haul rental building, moving a U-Haul trailer 200 yards, and blew around signs and garbage cans.
CoCoRaHS, mesonet and Cooperative observer reports, along with reports from SKYWARN spotters and Emergency Management officials indicated that rainfall totals reached ten to over twenty inches between the early morning hours of October 1 and the early evening of October 4. Observations over twelve inches were received from seven recording stations within Hobe Sound and Stuart (highest value was from a Weather Underground mesonet site in Stuart; 20.63 inches).
Heavy rain from Tropical Storm Mitch produced some flooding in eastern Martin County. Many roadways were covered with 10 inches of water and four houses flooded.
