The wider storm

Strong winds developed across southeast Georgia in the early morning hours well ahead of an approaching cold front. The presence of a strong pressure gradient in advance of the front, coupled with an increasingly strong low-level jet, produced widespread wind gusts of 40-50 mph. The strong wind gusts produced scattered wind damage through midday.
