The wider storm

A modest MCS moved out of northeast Alabama into western Georgia in the late evening hours of the 9th. Storms were weakening, however one section of the line was able to briefly generate stronger outflow which resulted in a stretch of wind damage, and even some hail, between Metro Atlanta and the Alabama border.

Began near Cedartown (34.0157, -85.2536).
