| Episode Narrative | A sharp upper-level trough and associated strong cold front swept through the region resulting in isolated reports of damaging thunderstorm wind gusts and an isolated tornado across parts of north and central Georgia. |
| Event Narrative | A National Weather Service survey team found that an EF1 tornado with maximum winds of 90 mph and a maximum path width of 150 yards struck a portion of southwest Coweta County during the early morning hours. The tornado touched down near the intersection of Martin Mill Road and Tabby Linch Road. The tornado travelled east-northeast along Taby Linch Road snapping or uprooting hundreds of pine, oak and pecan trees. A portion of one of the trees fell onto a home along Tabby Linch Road causing minor roof damage and a tin roof was peeled off of a barn as well. The tornado continued east-northeast into the Gordon Oaks subdivision along Gordon Oaks Way where numerous large trees were snapped or blown down. One large oak tree fell onto a two story home, crashing through the roof into the master bedroom. The residents had received the tornado warning and were able to leave their bedroom and take shelter on the lower level of the home, no injuries were reported. The tornado continued across Gordon Road downing more trees and power lines before lifting near the 1300 block of Moore Road. [02/24/19: Tornado #1, County #1/1, EF-1, Coweta, 2019:005]. |
