| Episode Narrative | A line of thunderstorms ahead of a strong cold front moved into northwest Georgia in the pre-dawn hours and swept across north and central Georgia through the morning into the afternoon producing numerous reports of damaging thunderstorm winds and an isolated tornado. Storms along the front also produced heavy rainfall, ranging from 1.5 to 4 inches, with higher amounts up to 6 inches, particularly over north Georgia. These rainfall amounts produced flash flooding over north and central Georgia. |
| Event Narrative | A National Weather Service survey team found that during the pre-dawn hours of February 6th, within a fast-moving line of strong to severe thunderstorms, a brief tornado with peak wind speeds of 85 mph and a maximum path width of 200 yards touched down in extreme northern Bartow County along County Line/Green Loop Road with a few trees snapped or uprooted. The tornado moved northeast quickly crossing into Gordon County just south of the intersection of Green Loop and Dempsey Loop Roads. [02/06/20: Tornado #1, County #1/2, EF-0, Bartow, 2020:006]. |
