Severe 3/24-3/26 possible severe wx

Ok I take the shame in that one, not feeling well so I got a shower and fell asleep so I got surprised. Surprised yet still had a 25 minute lead time so we rode up the road ten miles so we could watch radar. No damage here but wow at that lightning running up the updraft after it passed.

Edit: My boss man called to tell us about the storm. After he passed he told me there is major damage on Lake Mitchell east of Clanton.
 
That’s one of the most impressive supercells I’ve seen, that’s how you know it’s a powerhouse when it’s anvil is spreading out lightning far away from the main updraft And has a intense arch like that

What is the situation with the Atlanta area later tonight I’ve heard little to no information on what to expect? Are we actually only going be in a marginal severe threat with these temps?
