Wider weather episode

Typical afternoon summertime showers and thunderstorms developed within a persistent and abnormally moist tropical airmass during the afternoon and evening of July 8th , aided by stout instability as a weak upper level disturbance moved around the eastern periphery of a retrograding upper level ridge. These storms produced numerous reports of trees and powerlines down and isolated flash flooding across portions of north Georgia and far east-central Georgia.
