Thunderstorm Wind in Prince William County, Virginia

Trees blew down around Montclair, including one onto a residence in the 15000 block of Holly Hill Drive killing the resident inside.

A strong cold front intersected a very hot, humid, and unstable airmass across the Mid-Atlantic shortly after peak heating. Aided by dynamics and moderately strong shear from an approaching upper-level trough, the front spawned bands of thunderstorms that produced considerable wind damage particularly in the I-95 corridor. Some areas saw the worst thunderstorm-driven wind speeds and damage since the derecho in June 2012, though the area affected by the highest magnitude of winds was not nearly as large.
