Episode narrativeepisode_narrative	A classic tornadic spring storm system was moving from the southern plains toward the Midwest and Ohio Valley as an intense, negatively tilted upper low and associated deep surface low lifted northeast from the Arklatex region toward the Ohio Valley. The Storm Prediction Center had indicated a high risk of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes across western Tennessee, northern and central Alabama, and northern Mississippi. A moderate risk of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes was projected into north central and northwest Georgia as well. Deadly tornadoes had already occurred in northern Mississippi with this event. However, a weak wedge of cooler, most stable air remained in place across much of north and east Georgia thanks to persistent showers and thunderstorms during the morning hours of the 24th. A few of these morning and afternoon storms produced marginal severe hail. Toward midnight, a long lived supercell tracked across north Alabama and into northwest Georgia before finally diminishing across western Fannin county. This storm spawned several tornadoes along its path, including an EF1 tornado that tracked across the Alabama/Georgia border from DeKalb county in Alabama into Chattooga county, Georgia. Fortunately, this was the only tornado observed in Georgia with this major spring storm system.
