The combination of moist southwesterly flow ahead of a deep trough aloft and a tropical low in the Gulf of Mexico brought copious amounts of moisture to the state on the 5th and 6th.  On the 6th, the upper trough continued to dig, allowing a cold front to approach, which served to focus convection.  Numerous showers and thunderstorms developed through the period, with a few of these producing enough rain for flash flooding.  One thunderstorm was briefly able to reach severe limits in Atlanta, with several reports of trees down.
