What the National Weather Service wrote

Several trees were reported down in the northern part of Meigs County.

The wider storm

A continuation of severe weather from the previous day involved convection which developed early in the day in association with an overnight outflow boundary followed by the main event involving a meso-scale convective system driving southeast into a moderately to highly unstable air mass. An amplifying upper level trough building east through the Ohio Valley added sufficient wind energy for strong and organized storm development. Late in the day into the evening, more storms developed ahead of the system cold front as it moved southeast toward the Southern Appalachian region.

Began near Ten Mile (35.6700, -84.6700).
