opens the federal record of that event.
Broadcast media relayed a report of two male construction workers struck by lightning from a thunderstorm just northwest of their location while working on a roof of a auto dealership at 909 South Federal Highway in Pompano Beach. Both men were transported to a local hospital. One of them, a 55-year-old, was in critical condition. He died from his injuries a few days later on Monday, June 2nd.
A waterspout moved ashore in Pompano Beach in the midst of a seafood festival. Two large tents were mangled. Three persons suffered minor injuries from flying debris.
A woman and her toddler-aged daughter were struck by lightning while waiting for a bus. The woman felt electricity in her hands. Both people were able to make it inside of a Wendy's Restaurant and call for help. Paramedics treated the two at the restaurant and convinced them to go to the hospital to be looked at.
A 54-year-old man was struck and injured by lightning while leaning against a crane outside a business. Lightning apparently struck the crane and the man felt tingling in his left arm.
A 77-year old Canadian visitor was wading in waist-deep water at an unguarded section of the beach near the 100 block of Briny Avenue when he was caught in a rip current. The man suffered a heart attack but was revived by paramedics.
A large tree fell on a mobile home in Pompano Beach, displacing 5 people living in the home. This was associated with a band of gusty showers and thunderstorms, and nearby wind reports indicated speeds were probably in the 40-50 mph range.
The public reported street flooding with water up to 6 inches deep in the road near State US 1 and E Atlantic Boulevard in Pompano Beach after slow-moving showers and embedded thunderstorms stalled over the area. Rainfall totals were estimated to be around 4 to 6 inches in less than 2 hours.
Standing water and stranded vehicles were reported along several streets in Pompano Beach and Oakland Park due to heavy rainfall after continuous rounds of showers and thunderstorms moved across the area. Up to 6 inches of standing water was reported along portions of State Road A1A with multiple stranded vehicles. 4 to 6 inches of rain was estimated to have fallen within a 3-hour period across this area.
An off-duty NWS Employee reported extensive street flooding due to heavy rainfall in areas of Broward County, specifically Pompano Beach area. Water several inches deep and flowing near the intersection of Atlantic Blvd and US-1, the intersection of 15th St and North Andrews Ave, the intersection of 13th St and North Andrews Ave, and the intersection of North Andrews Ave and Copans Rd was reported. Some roadways/intersections were impassable. Multiple pictures received showing the excessive water.
