The radar
The Atlanta radar (KFFC), 139 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 18:14 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.
Open the radar archive at this moment
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 flash flood 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 12:00Z, 6.2 hours before the alert went out and 137 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.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 738 AM EDT MON JUL 26 2010/
SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
HEAT ADVISORY EXTENDED TO COVER THE AREA SOUTH OF RMG-GVL FOR HEAT
INDICES OF 105 PLUS THIS AFTERNOON. THE HEAT ADVISORY WILL NEED TO
BE RE-EVALUATED FOR TUESDAY AS THE AREA E AND S OF MCN COULD AGAIN
SEE HEAT INDICES OF 105 PLUS.
WEAK COLD FRONT JUST TO THE N WILL HAVE TROUBLE GETTING FAR INTO GA
IF AT ALL. HOWEVER...ITS LOCATION COMBINED WITH ENHANCING SURFACE
LOW PRESSURE AREA OVER THE WESTERN CAROLINAS AND A TROUGH INTO
N-CENTRAL GA WILL AID IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
THUNDERSTORMS TODAY WITH THE BEST AREA OVER N GA. PLENTY OF MOISTURE
AND INSTABILITY TO FUEL POTENTIALLY LARGE STORMS INTO TONIGHT.
UPPER RIDGE STILL OVER THE AREA FOR TUESDAY ALONG WITH A SURFACE
TROUGH ACROSS THE AREA. MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY AGAIN WILL COMBINE
FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS.
FORECAST HIGH TEMPERATURES 4-9 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL TODAY AND NEAR
TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL FOR TUESDAY. FORECAST LOW TEMPERATURES
RUNNING A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL TONIGHT AND TUESDAY
NIGHT.
OVERALL CONFIDENCE IS MODERATE.
LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE TREND CONTINUES FOR THE UPPER RIDGE TO DRIFT WEST THIS PERIOD
WITH A WEAK COLD FRONT TRYING TO ENTER THE STATE TOWARD WEEKS END.
ALL IN ALL IT LOOKS LIKE SUMMERTIME MAINLY DIURNAL CONVECTION
THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH TEMPERATURES RUNNING GENERALLY ABOVE NORMAL.
PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 154 AM EDT MON JUL 26 2010/
AVIATION UPDATE...
A WEAK TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MEANDER AROUND NORTH GA TODAY.
THIS COUPLED WITH A WEAK RIDGE ACROSS SOUTH GA WILL RESULT IN A
6-8KT WESTERLY WIND AT ATL TODAY. THE TROUGH WILL PROVIDE A FOCUS
FOR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS TSTMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HAVE
KEPT A TEMPO IN ATLANTA AREA TAFS BETWEEN 20Z AND 01Z. GUIDANCE
SUGGEST STORMS MAY LINGER WELL INTO THE EVENING HOURS...SO HAVE KEPT
CB IN TAFS UNTIL 06Z. OTHERWISE... VFR CIGS AND VISIBILITY WILL
PREVAIL THROUGH TONIGHT WITHOUT TSTM INFLUENCE.
//ATL CONFIDENCE...HIGH CONFIDENCE ON WINDS AND CLOUDS... BUT ONLY
MODERATE CONFIDENCE THAT TEMPO TSTM THREAT WILL AFFECT THE TAF SITES
