Hey everyone, checking in again from Atlanta.... 24 hours after Cindy started to affect the metro Atlanta, preliminary storm totals are starting to come in and this may be a very expensive storm. In Henry County, Ga. home of Atlanta Motor Speedwy, the officials there place a preliminary estimate of damage at $100 million in that county alone, with almost incredible devastation from an F-2 tornado that started in the infield of AMS. That total DOES NOT include some 300 homes that were damaged or destroyed.
It bears repeating yet again, if you are to the right front quadrant of a landfalling tropical system even as far inland as us here in Atlanta, you are at risk for flooding rains, dangerous lightning and tornadoes.
