Thunderstorm Wind in Chattahoochee County, Georgia

The Chattahoochee County 911 Center reported a tree blown down onto Miller Road in Cusseta.

Cold air remained in place across northern Georgia north of a stationary front over central Georgia early in the morning on Monday, February 15th. A developing surface low over the lower Mississippi Valley swept northeast during the day spreading moisture north over the state. The stationary front surged northward allowing warmer and moderately unstable air to spread into central Georgia while maintaining colder and drier air over northeast Georgia. The moist unstable airmass over central Georgia combined with moderate to high low-level shear resulted in isolated severe thunderstorms with several reports of damaging winds. The precipitation associated with this system in the colder and drier airmass over northeast Georgia resulted in a period of light ice accumulation due to freezing rain and drizzle.
