A tree was reported downed on Hwy 39 at Florence Marina.
The wider storm
A warm moist airmass was in place due to a stalled boundary across portions of central Georgia. As an upper level trough pushed northeastward, surface cyclogenesis occured over southern Alabama. As the surface low deepened and moved northeastward across Georgia, the stalled boundary retreated north allowing for warm air advection to overspread warmer temps and dewpoints across central Georgia. With modest low-level shear and surface-based instability in place ahead of the approaching surface front, an isolated cyclic supercell developed in west Georgia, producing a brief tornado and warranting severe thunderstorm warnings over the area.
Began near Florence (32.0871, -85.0414).
