Did it verify

Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched one storm report to this severe thunderstorm warning; the first came 37 minutes after it went out.

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.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Atlanta, GA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 14, 11:31 AM EDT, 1 hour 12 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 14, 11:31 AM EDT, 1 hour 12 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
1131 AM EDT Sun Apr 14 2019

.UPDATE...

Updated afternoon pops to hold onto a slower propagation of the initial
band of storms. Hi-res solutions of the HRRR and Nam Nest are
consistently having some convective redevelopment across portions
of north GA this afternoon closer to the actual front and east of
trough axis so while this initial round has damaging wind and
brief tornado threats, the afternoon could still have damaging
wind and perhaps hail threats with steepening lapse rates. Don't
let your guard down after this first pre-frontal wave. Previous
discussion follows...

Baker

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 730 AM EDT Sun Apr 14 2019/

SHORT TERM /Today through Monday/...
Very active day expected for the CWFA as the potential for severe
weather remains high across the area.

Pre-frontal trough/squall line is currently moving across western
Alabama. This line will continue eastward through the overnight and
early morning hours and should begin approaching the AL/GA state
line right around 12Z. The hi-res models have been very consistent
run to run with the timing of this system for the past 24 hours.
Yesterday, there were some hints in the models that as the initial
line approached GA, some weakening was possible with additional
strong/severe convection firing up along the actual cold front
during the late morning/afternoon. Today's runs of the HRRR and
local WRF, continue to show this trend. However, individual cells
out ahead of the line will have to be watched very closely.

Winds aloft remain impressive today with a 60kt 850mb jet moving
across as the front/squall line moves across. With temps near 80
degrees and dewpoints in the mid/upper 60s, plenty of surface
instability will be available. The best mid level lapse rates are
across northern GA, with more marginal values mainly south of
Interstate 20. In addition, this is a very dynamic system aloft. The
combination of all of these ingredients lead to the high potential
for severe weather across the entire CWFA today. The primary weather
hazard will be damaging wind gusts in excess of 60mph. Even the 06Z
sounding is showing close to 1000 j/kg of DCAPE. With mid level
lapse rates between 6-6.5 C/km across the northern CWFA, large hail
is also possible. An isolated tornado is also not out of the
question as decent shear will also be present. Locally heavy
rainfall will also be likely, with widespread 1" to 2". Locally
higher amounts possible.

The gradient has tightened head of the cold front. Do think that the
highest elevations will have the best chances for achieving the
sustained/gust potential for criteria. Outside of the mountains,
values will be a bit more marginal. However, even sub wind advisory
winds will bring down trees with wet soils. No changes expected for
the NPW.

The line of shra/tsra should clear the CWFA by the early evening.
High pressure will build in behind the frontal boundary. Near or
slightly below normal temps expected for tonight and Monday.

NListemaa

LONG TERM /Monday Night through Saturday/...
Extended forecast starts with high pressure over the area, lasting
through mid week. Next system moves in late Thursday, and have
backed off pops Wednesday given the slightly later model
solutions. Strong frontal system looks well organized and brings
the next chance for severe storms. SPC already highlighting the
area for Day 6 and 7 severe threat risk, and so this system will
certainly be the forecast concern through the latter half of the
week.

A secondary wave swings through the long-wave trough Friday night
into Saturday, keeping chance pops in the forecast. High pressure
returns to the state late Saturday. Saturday, expect the coolest
temperatures for the week, with highs only in the 60s, and lows
largely in the mid to upper 40s by Sunday morning.

31

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z Update...
Line of convection is poised to move through during  the first
few hours of the TAF period. The hi-res models have been very
consistent with the timing of the convective line. After the main
line of convection, do expect sct shra/isold tsra for the
remainder of the afternoon as the upper level system moves
through. Not confident on CIGS behind the line, but BKN MVFR seems
reasonable. VFR CIGS expected towards 12Z MON. Winds should shift
to the SW behind the front/convective line and remain gusty.

//ATL Confidence...12Z Update... High confidence on timing  of
convective line. Med-high confidence on CIGS behind the line.
Otherwise, high confidence all elements.
