What the National Weather Service wrote

One tree was reported down on Yellow Branch Road.

The wider storm

A cool front pushed southeast into the Southern Appalachian region at peak afternoon heating. More than enough instability was paired with sufficient directional wind shear for the development of mini supercell thunderstorms. The storms did not produce a tornado, but did generate a fair amount of damaging downburst winds during the late afternoon through mid evening hours.

Began near Evanston (36.4800, -83.2900).
