Episode narrativeepisode_narrative	While the upper low to the northeast of Georgia, across the mid-Atlantic was weakening, a weak upper trough lingered across this region. This combined with typical July heat and humidity was more than adequate for another afternoon of significant pulse thunderstorms, several of which became severe. The activity lingered into the early morning hours of the 9th. There was even one fatality in Banks county in northeast Georgia when a tree fell on a house. The slow movement and clustering of thunderstorms across north central Georgia in Forsyth, Dawson, and Lumpkin counties prompted flash flood warnings. A minor flash flood event was observed in Dawson county.
Event narrativeevent_narrative	The Forsyth County News of Cumming reported that lightning struck an outbuilding on Karr Road approximately two miles west of Coal Mountain and set the structure on fire. The building housed seven classic restored cars, all of which were destroyed. In addition, a camper and 1973 Chevy truck adjacent to the building were also destroyed by the fire.
