Event narrative

Thunderstorm winds blew down one tree near the intersection of Rolling Hill Road and Price Road.

Wider weather episode

A cold front associated with an upper level trough triggered the development of thunderstorms across Southside Virginia in the afternoon and evening. Warm air advection ahead of the front steadily increased through the day, and increased moisture over the area. This environment led to localized damaging winds gusts from storms.
