SANDERSVILLE, Ga. — After Wednesday morning's storms, some in Washington County are picking up the pieces after a strong storm moved through. 

The leading edge of the storms pushed into the western part of the county around 8:30 a.m., making it to the Jefferson and Glascock County lines by 9:15 a.m.

In addition to the damage, one injury was reported as well.

Broad rotation was observed on the radar just north of Sandersville around 8:50 in the morning. The National Weather Service issued a Severe Thunderstorm Warning with a "tornado possible" tag shortly before.
