Storm reports are still coming in after last nights rare breakout of January tornadoes. As of now it would appear that Tennessee has been hit the hardest, leaving Nashville heavily damaged by strong winds and Mt. Juliet ravaged by an EF2 Tornado. As of now 1 person has been killed. The gentleman who passed away was taking shelter in a shed when a large tree fell on top of the structure. His family, who lives in the house nearby, heard the tree fall around 3:30am and rushed to the mans aid. Unfortunately, he was pronounced dead on the scene. Prayers go out to this family who will be coping with this loss as they clean up from the storm.
Alabama is currently getting hammered by this same storm. The storm is headed northeast, threatening these states along the way. The warm weather streak is going to end and snow is going to move in to take its place. This will make storm cleanup difficult for the folks in TN.
