Into April 7th, a secondary line pushed through west-central Georgia spawning more damage. Outside of damaging thunderstorm winds over 60 mph scattered across the area, several tornadoes briefly occurred within the line of storms. All 5 tornadoes to date were classified as "weak" (3 EF-1 and 2 EF-0) with the majority of the damage to trees. Most structural damage was a result of trees falling on homes. Details from NWS surveys in conjunction with local/county emergency management information on the five tornadoes can be found here. April 10th Large Hail and Severe Weather: On April 10th multiple cells formed in north Georgia and quickly pushed southward. Lapse rates from 8-9 degrees C/km aided in the updrafts of these storms resulting in large hail (2-2.5") in these storms. Although most of the storms stayed north of I-20, one storms did push from Haralson County southeastward to Macon and Bleckley County resulting in widespread tree damage across many counties in west-central Georgia into central Georgia. A list of the hail reports can be found here. Based on the Climate Prediction Center's outlook for May, North and central Georgia have 40-50% chance of above normal temperatures. North and central Georgia have an equal chance of above or below normal precipitation. Data prepared by NWS Peachtree City/Atlanta.
