What the National Weather Service wrote

Winds gusts downed trees throughout the county. One fallen tree blocked Belspring Road in Fairlawn for a time. Almost 3,000 customers lost power. Damage values are estimated.

The wider storm

High winds occurred after the passage of a cold front. These winds helped to cause a great abundance of trees and power lines to be blown or taken down across the region. Given the dry conditions, some of the downed power lines parked several small brush fires.
