I saw a pic taken near Cookeville HS. It was a decent-sized twister

Thats a decent sized tornado golfball. Appears to me it may be roughly 1/2 mile wide give or take.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Ok; a 9 and a basement beats a 9 with no basement.

Ouch.

 

[vollygirl]

Yeah. My answering machine at the house picked up so hopefully it's alright.

Sun will cause more instability in the atmosphere.

Yes.

You can feel the rain that fell around 5:30 this morning being sucked back up. Dewpoints are in the mid 60's and rising.

Sorry man, I haven't heard anything yet.

Yeah I tried calling them but line was busy. Power likely out all over the area.

I feel fortunate here in Memphis that were likely not going to get much of anything but my heart goes out to those in Middle and East TN.
