The radar
The Northeast Alabama radar (KHTX), 158 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 00:09 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 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, 0.2 hours before the alert went out and 165 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, Jun 8, 3:07 PM EDT, 5 hours 2 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 307 PM EDT MON JUN 8 2015 .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/... PLENTY OF MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT AND SHORT WAVE. CURRENT CONVECTION IS HIGHLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN AND WILL DIMINISH MOST AREAS WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. RADAR INDICATING A MORE ORGANIZED AREA OVER TN/KY INTO NRN MS/AL. THIS AREA WILL BEGIN TO AFFECT THE FAR NW 01-02Z AND MOVE SOUTH DURING THE NIGHT AND IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN LATE AS THE INSTABILITY DIMINISHES. HOWEVER THIS AREA IS ALSO SHORT WAVE DRIVEN AND THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS OVER N GA INTO OVERNIGHT. THE COLD FRONT STRUGGLES TO GET TOO FAR S AND NOT VERY FAST AND LOOKS LIKE IT WILL STALL SOMEWHERE ACROSS THE N-CENTRAL GA AREA. IT LOOKS LIKE THE GREATEST POPS WILL BE OVER CENTRAL GA FOR TUESDAY WITH A DIEING AREA OF SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY SOME THUNDERSTORMS TO START...MAINLY OVER CENTRAL GA... AND THEN MORE DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION AS TUESDAY GOES ON. CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH WITH THE LOSS OF HEATING TUESDAY NIGHT AND STILL FAVORING CENTRAL GA. FORECAST LOW TEMPERATURES RUNNING 2-4 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL TONIGHT AND TUESDAY NIGHT. FORECAST HIGH TEMPERATURES RUNNING AROUND TO SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL ON TUESDAY. BDL .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... NO SIGINIFICANT CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE LONG TERM. OVERALL PATTERN REMAINS SIMILAR. FRONTAL BOUNDARY DRIFTING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TUESDAY...BRINGING SOMEWHAT MORE STABLE AIR ESPECIALLY NORTH. POPS HAVE BEEN REDUCED NORTH FOR WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. OTHERWISE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING WESTWARD INTO THE END OF THE PERIOD SO REDUCED POPS STILL LOOK OKAY FOR MOST OF THE AREA. 41 && LONG TERM /416 AM EDT MON JUN 8 2015/... MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW AN ACTIVE PATTERN FOR MID TO LATE WEEK AS A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES CARVE OUT AN UPPER LOW OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY REGION ON WEDNESDAY... WHERE IT LINGERS THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT BEFORE GETTING ABSORBED INTO A DEEPENING TROUGH OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS ON FRIDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN HIGH PRESSURE BEGINNING TO BUILD IN OVER THE AREA ON FRIDAY FROM THE EAST. THIS COULD BEGIN TO LESSON CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON-EVENING. FOR NOW... STILL LOOKING AT ABOVE NORMAL POPS THROUGH MUCH OF THE WORK WEEK. LONG RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW STRONG HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE STATE THIS WEEKEND... AND GREATLY REDUCING STORM CHANCES PROBABLY INTO THE FIRST OF NEXT WEEK. WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW ONLY A SLIGHT CHANCE OF AFTERNOON AND EVENING CONVECTION FOR THIS WEEKEND... EXCEPT SLIGHTLY HIGHER CHANCES IN THE NORTH GA MOUNTAINS. STILL SEE A WEAK SHEARED ENVIRONMENT... SO NO ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED. HOWEVER... CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS EACH DAY AS MUCAPES CLIMB INTO THE 2000-2500 RANGE DURING MAX HEATING. ALL INTEREST WITH OUTDOOR PLANS SHOULD CLOSELY MONITOR THE FORECAST AND REGIONAL RADARS BEFORE VENTURING OUTDOORS. 39 AVIATION... 18Z UPDATE... VFR CONDITIONS WITH 3500-5000 FT CU SCT-BKN.
