Taking Kennesaw "Mountain" and Stone "Mountain" out of the equation, you

find anything more than 500' hills...

I'd guess wind shear was the source of any turbulence.

It was my understanding that you could get standing waves that could go
for
100 miles, or more. Wrong?

No doubt about that, but the real mountains in Georgia are pretty far North
and/or Northeast. Since wind from 285 close to due West, I woudn't think
anything more or less West of Atlanta would cause standing waves anywhere
near the city..

Of course, all of this goes back to what the original poster considered to
be "Near Atlanta"..
