| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A series of strong short waves were moving across the U.S. These short waves were ejecting from a large upper trough in the western U.S. These vigorous short waves encountered a hot, moist, unstable air mass across the U.S. However, dry mid-level atmosphere air and west to west-northwest flow aloft promoted the development of organized lines of thunderstorms, which produced extensive strong outflow boundaries supporting wind gusts of 50 to 60 mph, even greater in some cases. During the afternoon of the 18th, such thunderstorm gust fronts affected northwest Georgia in particular with widespread damaging wind gusts, likely in excess of 70 mph, blowing down hundreds of trees, dozens of power lines, and causing damage to some structures. This area of thunderstorms progressed southeast toward Atlanta, before dissipating during the mid-evening. Considerable wind damage was noted in the northern and northwestern suburbs of Atlanta from this activity. |

Although there was a strong smell of smoke, no fire occurred. It appeared that lightning had affected some of the electrical components of the home with no fire. Monetary damage was minimal and related to electrical equipment. |
