| Episode Narrative | A strong pressure gradient developed across the area as a cold front departed the region and high pressure built in behind it. Damaging winds brought down trees in counties along and near the crest of the Blue Ridge. |
| Event Narrative | High winds brought two trees down on a power line. This caused the transformer to blow and a small fire in the brush below it. Damage values are estimated. |
