| Episode Narrative | An unusual mid-August cold front combined with antecedent very hot temperatures in the 95 to 100 degree range and northwest flow aloft to create a very unstable atmosphere. Thunderstorms developed during mid-afternoon in northwest and west central Georgia and quickly became severe. Thunderstorm wind damage was the most common occurrence with these storms, but some hail was reported with some of the storms, especially those near the beginning of the event. Frequent cloud-to-ground lightning was observed with many of the storms. |
| Event Narrative | The Meriwether County Emergency Management Director and 911 Center reported that several trees were blown down west of Greenville. Some power lines were also down in the area. |
