What the National Weather Service wrote

The Marion County Emergency Manager reported multiple trees and power lines down across the northwest portion of the county. Some were blocking roads.

The wider storm

A strong upper low was in place across the Great Lakes, allowing continued intermittent upper level disturbances to rotate around and affect the Southeast. A complicated surface pattern in place with multiple boundaries left over from previous days' convection as well as a weak nearly stationary front, combined with ample moisture and high levels of instability provided plenty of focus for thunderstorm development. Numerous storms did indeed develop, and many of these became severe with mainly damaging winds reported.

Began near Juniper (32.4670, -84.6373).
