What the National Weather Service wrote

Howell Road had a tree down.

The wider storm

An upper level ridge dominated over the SE with a surface ridge axis south of the forecast area with a mean layer SW flow in place. A weak surface trough was over south Georgia, and this feature combined with the sea breezes over an unstable and moist airmass produced scattered severe storms during the afternoon and evening.

Began near Howell (30.8300, -83.0500).
