The episode as NWS GSP wrote it up.
Strong winds developed from the west and northwest across the North Carolina Piedmont in the wake of an arctic cold front. Winds gusting from 40 to 45 mph, and occasionally as high as 50 mph resulted in a few downed trees and power lines, along with quite a few tree limbs. One tree fell on a home near Matthews in Mecklenburg County. Minor damage was also reported to multiple structures across the area.
