The toll

Deaths: 0
Injuries: 0
Property damage: $2.8 million

Deaths and injuries are direct and indirect together, as the offices filed them. Damage is property and crops in the dollars of the year, not adjusted for inflation, and only where an office estimated it.

What happened

The episode as NWS FFC wrote it up.

A weak disturbance continues to move northeast across the area on the northwest side of a subtropical ridge which had moved southward across north Florida. A hot, humid, very unstable air mass remained in place across the region. Ample tropical moisture was also in place at the surface. This provided the support for yet another afternoon and evening of scattered thunderstorms. While the thunderstorms were not as numerous or as widespread as the previous day, several of the storms that did develop became strong to severe. One storm produced a significant downburst across Lumpkin county downing over 200 trees and causing damage to homes, businesses, and schools across the county.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before the first event, 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 the first event at Jun 16, 2:31 PM EST, 1 hour 59 minutes earlier.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
331 PM EDT WED JUN 16 2010

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A WEAK TROUGH NOSING DOWN INTO NE-
NORTH CENTRAL GA...AND ANOTHER WEAK TROUGH OVER THE FAR SOUTHERN
REACHES OF THE FORECAST AREA...GENERALLY SOUTH OF AN AUGUSTA TO
ALBANY LINE. THE UPPER LEVELS SHOW A WEAK DISTURBANCE MOVING
ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL GA...WHICH WOULD SERVE TO SUPPORT ISOLATED
TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE TWO AFOREMENTIONED
SURFACE TROUGHS. SOUNDING DATA AND MID LEVEL ANALYSIS SHOWS SOME
MID LEVEL CAPPING...WHICH HAS HELPED SUPPRESS CONVECTION SO FAR
THIS AFTERNOON. LATEST RADAR SHOWS ISOLATED CONVECTION JUST BEGINNING
ALONG THE NE-NORTH CENTRAL GA SURFACE TROUGH AND EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY
TO CONTINUE AND BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE UPPER
DISTURBANCE AND DAYTIME HEATING. SATELLITE SHOWS AMPLE SUNSHINE OVER
MUCH OF THE AREA...AND THE SEA BREEZE PUSHING INTO THE FAR SE FORECAST
AREA WHERE THE SURFACE TROUGH IS NOTED. AS TEMPS OVER THE SOUTHERN
ZONES PUSH TOWARD THE MID 90S (CONVECTIVE TEMP)...EXPECT CONVECTION
TO INITIATE ALONG THIS SURFACE TROUGH LATER THIS AFTERNOON- EARLY
EVENING. ANY DEVELOPMENT WOULD LINGER THROUGH MID- LATE EVENING...BUT
SHOULD DISSIPATE BY MIDNIGHT AS THE UPPER DISTURBANCE PUSHES EAST
AND HEIGHT RISES ARE NOTED IN ITS WAKE. SOME MID LEVEL RIDGING
SHOULD HELP HOLD CONVECTION BELOW SEVERE LIMITS... BUT CANNOT RULE
OUT THE STRAY PULSE SEVERE STORM. FREQUENT LIGHTING...BRIEF HEAVY
RAIN AND WIND GUSTS TO 45 MPH SEEM TO BE THE GREATER STORM THREATS
TODAY. HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS AN INFLUENCE OVER THE DEEP SOUTH WITH
THE FORECAST AREA MAINLY ON THE EASTERN PERIPHERY. THEREFORE...EXPECT
THE DIURNALLY DRIVEN PATTERN OF ISOLATED TO SCATTERED AFTERNOON-
EVENING THUNDERSTORM THREAT TO PERSIST THROUGH THE SHORT TERM.
HAVE LEANED TOWARD PERSISTENCE ON OVERNIGHT LOWS AND DAYTIME HIGHS
WITH A SLIGHTLY FAVOR TOWARD THE MORE CONSISTENT MET NUMBERS.

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
WEAK UPPER RIDGE WILL PERSIST...BUT INITIALLY REMAIN CENTERED
MAINLY WEST OF THE STATE. THE UPPER RIDGE APEX MEANDERS A BIT EASTWARD
AND BUILDS OVER THE STATE BY WEDNESDAY. OTHERWISE...EXPECT LITTLE
CHANGE IN OVERALL LOW-MID LEVEL MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS IN-
PLACE... RESULTING IN A CONTINUED DIURNAL PATTERN OF ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND EVENING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
SLIGHTLY MORE RIDGE INFLUENCE BY LATE IN THE PERIOD COULD HOLD
CONVECTION TO VERY ISOLATED IN NATURE BY MID WEEK.
