| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A hot, very moist, tropical air mass remained in place across the region. The persistent subtropical ridge had shifted just to the southeast of Georgia. A cold front was near the Georgia-Tennessee border. The front, when combined with daytime heating and the very unstable, hot air mass, provided the necessary lift for widespread and numerous showers and thunderstorms. It turned out to be the most active day for severe thunderstorms during the month of July. Many of the storms produced damaging downburst wind gusts, marginally severe hail, and excessive cloud-to-ground lightning. Flash flooding was also observed with a couple of the storms. One early morning isolated storm over Coweta county, just southwest of Atlanta, produced three to four inches of rain in a couple of hours as it persisted over the same areas near Newnan in the very early morning hours after midnight. Flash flooding was again observed later in the day across Gwinnett county northeast of Atlanta.||Lightning was particularly intense with the thunderstorms during the afternoon of the 26th. Gwinnett county emergency management reported 14 house fires, one business fire, and two apartment fires between 430 pm and 8 pm EDT.||In addition to the severe thunderstorms and intense lightning, very hot conditions continued across the area, especially central Georgia. High temperatures in parts of central Georgia reached or exceeded 100 degrees, with heat index values nearing 110 during the afternoon. The intense heat took the life of yet another individual in central Georgia, this time in Twiggs county. A 47-year old female died on her unshaded front porch just outside Jeffersonville, where the temperature at noon was observed to be 99 degrees. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | A cluster of thunderstorms developed across central Coweta county shortly just after midnight on July 25th and persisted around Newnan for two to three hours. Three to four inches of rain fell in this area during this time frame resulting in flash flooding and flooding of streets and property. Shenadoah Boulevard near the White Oak Golf Course was flooded with up to four feet of water flowing over the road. Several other roads in the area were flooded with up to two feet of water over some of these as well. A resident of Newnan reported that water was two feet deep in his yard on Prestwick Drive. Flash flooding was observed along McCullom-Sharpsburg Road or Georgia Highway 154, Thomason Road, East Broad Street, Jefferson Street, and Postal Parkway. Walt Sanders Road, just off Georgia Highway 34, was closed with one to two feet of water over it as well. Damage was confined to minor debris removal in the flooded areas. |
