The wider storm

A very moist and unstable air mass over the region, combined with a series of weak mid-level short waves moving through the southeastern U.S., produced several rounds of widespread thunderstorms across north and central Georgia. Moderate instability each afternoon and evening helped to produce strong to severe thunderstorms with heavy rainfall and isolated reports of damaging wind gusts in north Georgia. Overnight on the 1st into the 2nd, nearly stationary area of thunderstorms resulted in flash flooding across the town of Warner Robins, GA.

Began near Taylors Mill (32.6144, -83.8707).
