Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA very deep upper trough, located across the central United States, moved very slowly toward the eastern states between December 10th and December 11th. Deep southwest flow aloft and at the surface provided the area with copious Gulf moisture. Temperatures were unseasonably warm. A slow moving Pacific frontal system accompanied the upper-level trough and moved across the area from west to east during the two-day period. Slow moving, heavy rain and thunderstorms accompanied the upper trough and frontal system. Repeated rounds of heavy rain resulted in widespread flooding and some flash flooding across northwest Georgia counties, where four to five inches of rain fell in the two-day period, as well as in some central Georgia counties, where up to six inches of rain fell in the Sumter and Webster county areas. Several creeks, streams, and smaller rivers rose above flood stage in northwest and the southwestern parts of central Georgia during a three day period from the 10th to the 13th. Isolated severe thunderstorms were also noted at the beginning of the event, including one which spawned a brief EF0 tornado in Haralson county early on the 10th causing damage to a high school.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeAn amateur radio operator relayed a report of street and highway flooding on Interstate 85 at Shallowford Road. Water was reported to be eight to twelve inches deep on the interstate. Rainfall of 1.0 to 1.5 inches fell across much of western DeKalb county in about one hour as a line of heavy thunderstorms traversed the area during this time frame.
