Amazing low pressure readings across the south with his system. Dalton, GA reported 981.2mb late last night. It's about 5 std deviations off average which equates to a 1 in 30 year event.
I began dedicated weather observing in metro Atlanta in 1973, and the lowest barometric pressure reading I've ever seen in 981.2 mb (28.98") on the afternoon of March 28, 1984......the mesolow that bombed to 975 mb/ 28.80" over South Carolina and spawned the deadly Carolinas Tornado Outbreak (57 dead, 1200 injured).
