| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | While a strong subtropical ridge persisted across most of the southern United States, the remnants of Tropical Depression Number Five (TD5) continued to circulated around the subtropical ridge. With the ridge at this time centered near New Orleans, the remnants of tropical depression number five had once again moved into Georgia. Meanwhile...a weak frontal system had stalled across north Georgia, being pushed southward by a short wave moving through the Ohio Valley. The combination of the front the remnants of TD5 resulted in numerous thunderstorms. While none of the thunderstorms became severe, frequent lightning and very heavy rain accompanied many of the storms. Localized flash flooding was reported in Cherokee county in north central Georgia during this event. By far, however, the biggest issue on this day was frequent and intense cloud-to-ground lightning, which caused a rash of house fires in several northeast and east central Georgia counties. The thunderstorms persisted into the early morning hours of the 21st across northeast Georgia between Athens, Lawrenceville, and Commerce. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | The Athens Banner Herald reported that lightning struck a home on Antrim Glen Road. The structure suffered moderate fire and smoke damage. |
