What happened

The episode as NWS FFC wrote it up.

Very dry weather continued throughout December across all of north and central Georgia. December marked the 5th consecutive month of below normal rainfall for many locations, and the third consecutive month of much below normal rainfall for most of north and central Georgia. Significant rain fell on only 4 days at most locations across north and central Georgia, with daily amounts on these days averaging 0.50 inch or less. Monthly rainfall amounts for December were generally less than 2 inches. Specifically, rainfall amounts at the major reporting sites included 2.22 inches at Atlanta, 1.81 inches at Columbus, 1.58 inches at Macon, and 1.48 inches for Athens. October through December rainfall ranked among some of the lowest in history. Three month totals included 4.63 inches at Columbus, 4.18 inches at Macon, 4.02 inches at Atlanta, and 2.55 inches for Athens. The 3-month total of 2.55 inches recorded in Athens was the lowest amount of rainfall ever observed during these three months since 1931. For Atlanta, Macon, and Columbus, the October through December period ranked as the 2nd, 5th, and 3rd driest since 1931. Annual rainfall amounts for 2001 were below normal at many stations for the 4th consecutive year. Annual deficits averaged between 10 and 15 inches.
