The wider storm

A line of Strong Thunderstorms making its way out of Alabama continued to pose a damaging wind threat across Western GA from the TN border to the southern edge of the CWA. Consistent and widespread wind damage was reported, potentially due to the slow nature of the line. Thunderstorms weakened as they moved east of the ATL metro.

Began near Rockridge (33.3072, -85.1052).
