What the National Weather Service wrote

Severe thunderstorm outflow winds downed a tree onto a house on Ridge Rd. and Leisure Lane on Frye Island.

The wider storm

A surface cold front dropping down from Canada interacted with a very hot and unstable airmass in place across the state. Significant shear aloft allowed for some organized thunderstorms. The strongest severe storms brought a swatch of wind damage from York to Cumberland Counties.

Began near Smiths Mills (43.8300, -70.5200).
