The wider storm

Within an unseasonably warm and moist low-level environment, a strong southwest upper level flow with an intense mid-level shortwave ejecting across the Central Plains/Midwest regions resulted in a line of strong to severe thunderstorms (along with heavy rain) across north Georgia during the evening and overnight hours of 29-30 December 2021. The remnant boundary/front settled over central Georgia during the afternoon of 30 December 2021 which resulted in redevelopment of scattered strong to severe thunderstorms. Several tornadoes, along with areas of wind damage and large hail occurred all across north and central Georgia from these events. Rainfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches occurred over the area, resulting in isolated flash flooding in the greater Atlanta metro area.

Began near Ellaville (32.2233, -84.2860).
