I'm sorry to report 2 deaths and 2 injuries in southern Putnam County early this morning. This is the area that was under a tornado warning yesterday. It seems likely the tree was damaged and weakened by the storm and fell several hours later.

Lots of wind damage yesterday, mainly trees down and some power lines. I was tracking tornado warnings through the evening in Meriwether, Upson, and Putnam Counties and some of damage there may have been from a tornado. That will be determined over the next day or two.

[Brad Nitz @BradNitzWSB]

Lots of trees down from the severe storms today, this is preliminary and we're likely to add more to the map after the sunrises Friday.
