Thunderstorm Wind in Butler County, Pennsylvania

A tree fell on a house along with power lines along Mahood Road.

Strong southwesterly wind ahead of an approaching front eventually advected sufficient moisture and warm air in the lower levels to overcome a capping inversion ahead of a cold front that would eventually be the main driver of forcing to take advantage of a supportive environment. Damaging wind was the primary threat, although the shear and lapse rates aloft pointed towards a limited potential for large hail as well. Tornadoes looked possible, however, LCLs were relatively high, and any issued TORs did not verify.
