| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A hot, humid, unstable air mass remained across the southeastern United States. Despite strong high pressure aloft centered over the southeastern U.S., scattered, diurnal pulse thunderstorms developed once again across the entire area during afternoon heating and continued well into the evening. The thunderstorms that did develop dissipated quickly. However, with surface temperatures in the mid to upper 90s, as the thunderstorms collapsed they produced damaging downburst winds. Frequent cloud-to-ground lightning was noted with many of the thunderstorms. Yet another lightning injury occurred from these afternoon thunderstorms, continuing a very dangerous summer from lightning-related incidents across north and central Georgia. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | The Douglas County Emergency Manager, the Atlanta broadcast media, and the Douglas County Sentinel reported that a 15-year old male was struck by lightning while working with his father in the garage at their home on Bellemeade Drive off Coursey Lake Road. The teenage boy was apparently pushing the garage door opener button to close the door when the lightning strike occurred. The boy's arm was numb for several hours, but otherwise all injuries appeared to be minor. He was transported to a local hospital, treated, and released. |
