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, 5.6 hours before the alert went out and 59 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.

NWS Atlanta, GA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 3, 8:13 PM EDT, 5 hours 22 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 3, 8:13 PM EDT, 5 hours 22 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 813 PM EDT FRI JUL 3 2015 .UPDATE... NEAR-TERM GRIDS UPDATED TO REFLECT OBSERVED TRENDS AND RECENT GUIDANCE. EXPECT SCT CONVECTION IN CENTRAL AL TO MOVE EAST INTO WESTCENTRAL GA AROUND 10PM THEN WEAKEN AFTER MIDNIGHT. A LARGER AREA OF SHRA/TSRA LIKELY TO MOVE INTO NORTHWEST GA AFTER 2AM SPREADING SLOWLY SOUTH AND EAST. THESE STORMS SHOULD NOT BE SEVERE BUT MAY PRODUCE PERIODS OF HVY RAIN...BASED ON THIS WILL KEEP FLASH FLOOD WATCH GOING. THIS WEAKENING AREA OF CONVECTION SAT MORNING COULD AFFECT LOCAL ACTIVITIES IN THE ATL METRO INCLUDING THE PEACHTREE ROAD RACE. WHATS LEFT OF THIS PRECIP SHOULD CONTINUE TO WEAKEN WITH ADDITIONAL ISOLD/SCT CONVECTION IN THE AFTERNOON JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE WITH PREFERENCE FOR AREAS NEAR BOUNDARIES AND GRADIENTS BETWEEN THICK CLOUD COVER AND SUNSHINE. SNELSON && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 334 PM EDT FRI JUL 3 2015/ ..FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR NORTH GEORGIA THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING... SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/... MOIST AND RELATIVELY FAST (35-45KT) ZONAL LOW TO MID LVL FLOW CONTINUES TO SEND ONE IMPULSE AFTER ANOTHER ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST REGION...SUPPORTING THE MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THAT WILL PERSIST THROUGH AT LEAST SUNDAY. TIMING/DURATION/INTENSITY OF EACH "ROUND" HAS BEEN CHALLENGING GIVEN RAPID FLUCTUATIONS WITH MESOSCALE ENVIRONMENT. THE AREA IS IN A BIT OF LULL THIS AFTERNOON BUT EXPECT THINGS TO PICK BACK UP LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT AS NEXT S/W APPROACHES. MODELS ACTUALLY IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THIS WAVE OVERNIGHT...WITH THE NAM BEING THE MOST AGGRESSIVE SHOWING A 1-3 INCH MAX OF 6-HOUR PRECIP FROM CENTRAL AL TO NORTHEAST GA BTWN 06-12Z/SAT. TRACK OF S/W ENERGY AND BEST LOW LVL CONVG SEEM TO SUPPORT THE HEAVIER RAIN OCCURRING ACROSS NORTH GA LATE TONIGHT/EARLY SAT. ANY BREAK IN CONVECTION WILL BE SHORT-LIVED ON SATURDAY AS UPR LVL LOW STRENGTHENS OVER NRN MS/WRN TN AROUND 00Z/SUNDAY. FAVORABLE MOISTURE/ENERGY ADVECTION WITHIN PRONOUNCED SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL SUPPORT ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THAT WILL TRACK ACROSS AL/GA BY SATURDAY EVENING INTO SUNDAY MORNING AS UPR LOW APPROACHES EASTERN TENNESSEE BY 12Z/SUNDAY. ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAIN EXPECTED SATURDAY NIGHT. FLOOD PRONE AREAS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTH GA... WILL BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO FLOODING/FLASH FLOODING THROUGH SUNDAY. EACH ROUND OF RAIN /TONIGHT AND AGAIN SATURDAY NIGHT/ COULD BRING AT LEAST AN INCH WITH ISOLD AMOUNTS UP TO 2 INCHES. ROUGH ESTIMATE OF THE HEAVIEST RAIN AXIS OVER THE NEXT 24-48 HOURS WILL BE ALONG AND NORTH/WEST OF A CARROLLTON TO MARIETTA TO GAINESVILLE LINE...BUT CERTAINLY THIS IS NOT EXACT. GIVEN MOIST ENVIRONMENT AND LIMITED HEATING DUE TO CLOUDS AND RAIN...SEVERE POTENTIAL WILL GENERALLY BE LOW. HOWEVER...SIMILAR TO TODAY...IF OUTFLOW-DRIVEN BROKEN LINE/WEAK QLCS ROLLS INTO MORE UNSTABLE AIRMASS SOUTH AND EAST OF ATL...EXPECT A FEW STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE STORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS CONTINUING TO BE PRIMARY THREAT. DJN.83 LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... BY MONDAY...UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS IS OVER THE EASTERN TWO THIRDS OF THE AREA WITH SOME MID LEVEL DRIER AIR NOTED FOR THE NORTHERN CWA WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER DROPPING TO 1.4 INCHES. OVERALL WOULD EXPECT THIS TO RESULT IN A REDUCTION IN COVERAGE OF STORMS OVER PREVIOUS DAYS AND PLAN ONLY MINOR TWEAKS TO CURRENTLY ADVERTISED MID TO HIGH END CHANCE GRIDS. DRIER AIR CONTINUES FOR TUESDAY BEFORE ERODING AWAY AND GIVING WAY TO CONTINUED HIGH MOISTURE ATMOSPHERE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE LONG TERM. WITH MID AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING IN HOWEVER...UPPER LEVEL ENERGY IS MUCH REDUCED THROUGH THE PERIOD AND DIURNALLY FAVORED CHANCE POPS LOOK SUFFICE FOR THE GRIDS. REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST IS ON TRACK AND NO CHANGES ARE PLANNED. DEESE 39 && .AVIATION... 00Z UPDATE... PRIMARY CONCERN IS THREAT FOR TSRA OVERNIGHT AND SAT AFTERNOON. MOST LIKELY SCENARIO IS THAT OTHER THAN ISOLD TSRA IN WESTCENTRAL GA 02Z-05Z...AREA OF SHRA/TSRA LIKELY OVER NORTHWEST GA AFTER 05Z SPREADING INTO ATL METRO AROUND 07Z. NOT SURE PRECIP WILL MAKE IT THAT FAR SOUTH...BUT MOST LIKELY BASED ON RECENT GUIDANCE. PRECIP SHOULD CLEAR ABOUT 2-4HRS AFTER ONSET. NO OTHER BIG CONCERNS. SFC WINDS WILL REMAIN ON WEST COMPONENT. MVFR CIGS/VSBYS DURING SHRA/TSRA OTHERWISE VFR. //ATL CONFIDENCE...00Z UPDATE... MEDIUM CONFIDENCE ON LIKELIHOOD AND TIMING OF TSRA. HIGH CONFIDENCE ON ALL OTHER ELEMENTS.
