What the National Weather Service wrote

A tree fell in the roadway on Rt. 628 in the vicinity of Richmond Rd and US 360.

The wider storm

An upper trough approached the Mid-Atlantic region from the west on June 19th. Strong solar heating and rich low level moisture combined for robust instability across the area. Moderate wind shear ahead of the upper trough resulted in sufficient shear for thunderstorm organization and resulted in widespread damaging winds across the region.

Began near Warsaw (37.9500, -76.7300).
