| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An upper low was located over southern Kentucky on the morning of the 19th, with a shortwave trough extending into northern Georgia. Tropical moisture prevailed over Georgia as well. Widespread showers with embedded thunderstorms developed across a portion of north Georgia early in the morning and moved slowly south. Rainfall amounts of 3 to 7 inches occurred in less than 6 hours prior to 700 AM EST in an area from Dawsonville to Gainesville to Lawrenceville to Roswell. Significant flash flooding occurred with major damage to roads and bridges near Flowery Branch. Another 3 to 7 inches of rain occurred in 6 hours after 700 AM EST in a portion of northwest Georgia from Trenton to LaFayette to Calhoun and Cartersville to Rome and Summerville. Both heavy rain events caused widespread flash flooding and minor river flooding. As the instability increased during the day, the thunderstorms became more intense. Many of the thunderstorms were able to reach severe levels during the afternoon hours, causing primarily wind damage, with only isolated reports of large hail. |
