We are now getting a break. We had one short storm that blew through here in about 5 minutes with lots of rain and hail. We had a Tornado warning at the time but nothing that bad here. Same cannot be said for other locales. Downtown Atlanta took another (albeit brief) touchdown. There were fatalities reported in Polk and Floyd Counties near Rome (about 60 miles NW of Atlanta) with heavy damage reported. We are still under a Tornado Watch until 1 AM. We are now under brilliant and bright sunshine. That's bad because even a little bit of this will increase instability and probably aide in more storm development.
