Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA strong southern stream short wave was moving from the southern plains toward the southeast. A cold front remained nearly stationary across the Tennessee Valley and into the Southern Plains. A long-lived squall line of severe thunderstorms tracked from the mid-south during the morning hours into the southeast by late afternoon, reaching the Georgia border around 5 pm. The line of thunderstorms weakened quickly as it progressed further eastward into the state, but not before blowing down several hundred trees and power lines, especially in parts of west central Georgia.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA deputy with the Polk County Sheriff's Office observed a funnel cloud on the north side of Cedartown near the intersection of the bypass, U.S. Highway 27, and the Super Wal-Mart. No structural damage or tornado touchdown was observed or reported. Radar data indicated a weak mesocyclone in the area at the time.
