What the National Weather Service wrote

A trained storm spotter reported multiple trees down near Tate City.

The wider storm

A large upper-level ridge of high pressure centered over the southern plains resulted in several days of persistent northwesterly upper-level flow over the region. A series of weak short waves combined with a moderately unstable atmosphere to produce isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms each day, mainly during the afternoon and evening hours.

Began near Titus (34.9500, -83.6200).
