A tree was blown down across a road in Laings, Ohio.

The wider storm

A strong, occluding surface low crossed the Great Lakes on November 27th. After morning rain, instability in the form of around 500 J/kg of mean-layer CAPE was able to develop in the Middle Ohio Valley and advect northeast into northern West Virginia and southwest Pennsylvania. A strongly sheared environment was also present. Strong low-level flow helped to support a damaging-wind threat, while cold temperatures aloft and favorable deep-layer shear also supported large hail, which is unusual for late November. Most of the activity was east of Ohio, with only a couple incidents of wind damage noted.

Began near Laings (39.7200, -81.0100).
