| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A deep upper-level trough was shifting slowly east from the central U.S. into the eastern U.S. A leading cold front was located from New York to Alabama. A summerlike subtropical ridge across the southeast U.S. was slowly shifting off the southeast U.S. coast. The highly meridional flow had allowed an unusually deep tropical air mass to spread far northward across the eastern half of the U.S. This weather system had been responsible for widespread catastrophic flooding in western and middle Tennessee during the previous three days. As the system moved toward Georgia, it began to weaken considerably and the main dynamics lifted northeast more toward the mid-Atlantic. Nonetheless, the slow movement of the system brought several rounds of showers and thunderstorms to the area with two-day rainfall of 3-4 inches. Flash flooding was observed in several counties on the northwest and west side of Atlanta, some of the same counties that experienced catastrophic flooding during late September 2009. Flash flooding during this event was far less significant. Severe weather was isolated and confined to east central Georgia toward the end of the event on the 3rd. |
