Wider weather episode

Deep moisture over the state ahead of an approaching cold front produced several rounds of widespread rainfall over north Georgia on October 30th. Rainfall was heavy enough at times to produce isolated flash flooding. The strong front swept through north and central Georgia overnight and through the day on October 31st. Despite somewhat limited instability, strong lift and shear resulted in a few isolated severe thunderstorms in north and central Georgia.
