Where the report was made, with tornadoes recorded within 15 miles over the years.

What the National Weather Service wrote

A tree was down blocking the northbound lane of Washington Road.

The wider storm

Modest height falls as a slow moving shortwave trough crossed the region resulted in a few strong to severe storms ahead of a surface cold front. Strongest shear (25-30kts) was observed largely south of Pittsburgh allowing for more organized convection and a heightened severe threat.

Began near Ruff Creek (39.9600, -80.1700).
