I've been watching LaGrange off and on in particular day. They've been ground zero for all of the flash fooding and severe t'storms so far.
 
I have not even looked at the weather today until just now. But man what a load of rain coming my way.
 
Wow at the rain. Holy cow and it’s been worse a few miles to my south. I’m not even gonna try to take my normal route to work because I know it’s underwater.

We got hammered for pretty much 22 of the last 26 hours. Woke up to the tornado siren yesterday and a lightning show that was insane. Last night was just one strong storm after another and we registered just under 9" of rain in the gauge before I left this morning at 7. This has been a crazy year to date, 4 confirmed tornadoes within 20 miles in under 3 months. Yesterday being the largest, luckily in a fairly lower population area, but still a lot of damage.

Right there with you in Mcdonough.....just didn't get any tornado warnings.....this time.....but January was a different story
 
Not quite tennis ball size where I am, but the hail was golf ball size. I recorded a clip of it from my front porch. I’ll try to post it when I can.
Idk if it was the excitement of it in the moment or what, but looking back over the clip I recorded it definitely wasn't golf ball size either, more like quarter size. It sure seemed bigger in real time then.?
