The Greer radar (KGSP), 136 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 06:52 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Peachtre/Fal Fld, GA (KFFC), launched 00:00Z, 6.8 hours before the alert went out and 163 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Area forecast discussion, May 10, 10:16 PM EDT, 4 hours 34 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
1016 PM EDT SAT MAY 10 2008

.UPDATE...
TORNADO WATCH NUMBER 302 HAS BEEN ISSUED AND IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 5 AM
SUNDAY. EVERY COUNTY IN OUR CWA EXCEPT TOWNS UNION AND WHITE ARE
UNDER THIS WATCH. ACTIVITY ACROSS MS/TN/NORTHERN AL IS REALLY
DEVELOPING AND IS EXPECTED TO MOVE EAST QUICKLY OVERNIGHT. NW GA
SHOULD BEGIN SEEING CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY AROUND OR SHORTLY AFTER
MIDNIGHT WITH THE REST OF THE AREA FOLLOWING THROUGH SUN AFTERNOON.

&&

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 522 PM EDT SAT MAY 10 2008/

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
CURRENT RADAR LOOP SHOWS SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY POPPING UP ALONG THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY BETWEEN ATL AND MCN. TORNADO WATCH 294 HAS BEEN
ISSUED FOR AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF A POLK CO TO OGLETHORPE CO
LINE.  THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS CURRENTLY STALLED JUST NORTH OF MCN
BUT IT IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN MOVING NE THIS EVENING AS A WARM FRONT
AHEAD OF THE DEVELOPING COLD FRONT. MAIN LOW CENTER NOW OVER OK/KS
IS EXPECTED TO DEEPEN RAPIDLY AS IT MOVES NE INTO THE OH RIVER
VALLEY BY 18Z SUN. ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO NW GA
AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT AND SWEEP THROUGH THE STATE BY 00Z MON. RIGHT
NOW THE MAIN THREAT LOOKS LIKE TI WILL BE STORMS DEVELOPING ALONG
THE STALLED FRONT BUT AS STORMS START TO DEVELOP BACK ACROSS AL THEY
MAY TRACK EASTWARD AND MOVE IN ACROSS THE ATL AREA. AS THINGS
CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING...LOW AND MID LEVEL LAPSE
RATES BEGIN TO STEEPEN ALLOWING CAPES TO GET UP INTO THE 2000 TO
3000 RANGE WITH LIS AROUND -4 TO -7. THESE INSTABILITY INDICES WILL
COMBINE WITH THE 50 KTS OR SO OF WESTERLY DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND WE
SHOULD HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH TO GET SOME ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
SEVERE STORMS ALONG THE FRONT. WITH THE SHEER IN PLACE...SUPERCELLS
WILL BE LIKELY...SO THE HAIL THREAT WILL BE HIGH WITH ANY STORMS
THAT CAN TAKE HOLD. ALSO WITH THE FRONT ACTING AS A FOCUSING
MECHANISM THE TORNADO THREAT MUST BE WATCHED CAREFULLY...HOWEVER THE
BEST SHEAR LOOKS TO STAY OFF TO THE WEST. THE SEVERE THREAT LOOKS
LIKE IT WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT APPROACHES
THE AREA. BY 12Z SUN A VERY STRONG 110KT JET AT 500 MB MOVES IN OVER
NW GA AS IT SWINGS AROUND THE BASE OF THE VERTICALLY STACKED LOW.
THIS JET WILL PUT NORTH GEORGIA INTO THE FAVORED LEFT EXIT REGION BY
EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. MODELS APPEAR TO BE GENERATING A LARGE COMPLEX
OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THIS LEFT EXIT REGION...MOVING IT FROM NORTHERN
ALABAMA INTO SOUTHERN NORTH CAROLINA THROUGH THE DAY. GIVEN CAPES
EVEN AT 12Z OF 1000 TO 2000 J/KG AND STORM MOTIONS LIKELY AT OR
BETTER THAN 50 KTS...A RATHER WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WIND THREAT WITH
ISOLATED TORNADOES LOOKS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY MORNING
INTO THE AFTERNOON. THE MODELS DO SHOW THIS COLD FRONT SWINGING
THROUGH THE STATE VERY FAST SO IT MAY BE DIFFICULT TO GET A GOOD
ORGANIZED STORM TO DEVELOP. BY SUNDAY NIGHT...COLD FRONT WILL HAVE
MOVED THROUGH THE REGION PUTTING GA IN GOOD NWLY FLOW AROUND THE
BACK SIDE OF THE PARENT LOW CENTER. HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS BUILDING
INTO THE AREA MON WITH IT BECOMING CENTERED OVER GA BY 12Z TUE.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE KEEPS GA DRY MON AND TUE BUT NEXT WEAKER COLD FRONT
MOVES EAST OUT OF THE MS RIVER VALLEY TUE NIGHT AND SHOULD BRING
PRECIP BACK TO THE STATE BY WED MORNING. THE MODELS SHOW THIS FRONT
STALLING ACROSS CENTRAL GA WED AFTERNOON AND IT STAYS THERE THROUGH
THE END OF THE WEEK. IF THIS HAPPENS THIS FRONT WILL ACT AS A
MOISTURE TRAIN AND KEEP PUMPING GULF MOISTURE INTO THE AREA. THIS
SHOULD BRING US SOME MUCH NEEDED PRECIP TO THE STATE. IT WILL ALSO
BRING IN STRONG AND SOME POSSIBLY SEVER STORMS. THIS PATTERN WILL
NEED TO BE WATCHED. AS FOR TEMPERATURES...WE WILL START OF BELOW
NORMAL AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK WITH STRONG COLD/DRY
ADVECTION...BEFORE RETURNING TO NEAR SEASONAL NORMS BY THE MIDDLE OF
THE WORK WEEK.

AVIATION...
THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE AT ALL SITES THROUGH SUNDAY
MORNING. MODELS INDICATING A QUICK EXIT OF THE MOISTURE BETWEEN 12
AND 15Z SUN WITH THE COLD FRONT MOVING RAPIDLY ACROSS THE CWA BY 00Z
MON. WINDS WILL BE NORTHWEST AND GUSTY BEHIND THE FRONT. UNTIL THEN
WINDS WILL BE SOUTHWEST 5 TO 10 KTS THRU SUNDAY MORNING AND CIGS
WILL SLOWLY LOWER THROUGH THE NIGHT...ESPECIALLY IN THE TSRA.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT
THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT.

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY FRONT NORTH OF A COLUMBUS...MACON...AUGUSTA LINE WILL
MOVE NORTH THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT AS A WARM FRONT. AT THE SAME
TIME A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT WILL MOVE OUT OF THE CAROLINAS AND INTO
NORTHEAST GEORGIA.

.PRIMARY HAZARDS...
THE PRIMARY HAZARDS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS...LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED
TORNADOES. THE MOST LIKELY TIME FRAME WOULD BE THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT...AND GENERALLY SOUTH AND WEST OF A LINE FROM BLUE RIDGE...
TO LAWRENCEVILLE...TO VIDALIA.

.OTHER HAZARDS...
HEAVY RAIN WILL ALSO BE A HAZARD TONIGHT JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE ACROSS
NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA. RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES WITH
ISOLATED AMOUNTS NEAR 3 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE BETWEEN SUNSET THIS
EVENING AND SUNRISE SUNDAY MORNING.

.DISCUSSION...
AS THE WARM FRONT LIFTS INTO NORTH GEORGIA...THE ATMOSPHERE WILL
DESTABILIZE. LIFTED INDICES FROM -3 TO -6...AND CAPES FROM 1500 TO
3000 ARE LIKELY BY THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL REMAIN ACROSS MUCH OF THE
AREA THROUGH TONIGHT. ALTHOUGH THE WIND SHEAR IS NOT
IMPRESSIVE...DUE TO THE PROXIMITY OF THE FRONT AN ISOLATED TORNADO
IS POSSIBLE. ACROSS NORTHEAST GEORGIA...THE WEDGE WILL BE IN PLACE
TONIGHT AND THIS WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGING WINDS AND
TORNADOES...HOWEVER LARGE HAIL IS STILL A POSSIBILITY.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE SUNDAY. THERE WILL BE A CHANCE
FOR THUNDERSTORMS AGAIN WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTERS SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR ACTIVATION THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA.
