What the National Weather Service wrote

Near Upper Lowell, numerous trees were blown down, some of which were uprooted, with a very localized path of damage and measured wind gust of 52 mph.

The wider storm

In the midst of a heat wave in the Ohio Valley, abundant low level moisture and unseasonably hot temperatures worked in tandem to produce isolated thunderstorms on the afternoon of June 25th. This led to two instances of downed trees on that day, one occurring in Washington County and the other in Athens County. Thunderstorm activity within this weather pattern were primarily driven by daytime heating and quickly dissipated around sunset that evening.

Began near Upper Lowell (39.5100, -81.5800).
