Several waves of severe weather occurred ahead of and during the passage of the system including damaging winds, tornadoes and downbursts. The NWS surveyed the more significant damage and damage which was most likely caused by a tornado. It should be noted that this was a complicated survey process due to the nature of the meteorological feature which was causing the majority of the tornados listed below. It was similar, but weaker, in many respects to the 2023 Griffin tornado. Preliminary results confirm that 10 tornados occurred during the late afternoon and evening hours across North and Central Georgia. This is a preliminary report which contains the basic statistics of the identified tornados and downburst. A full writeup is still in progress and will be released upon completion. We would like to thank the various County Emergency Management agencies for their assistance with these surveys, including areal footage and additional ground survey support. ..Muscogee County Tornado...
