Nashville tornado: Drone footage shows incredible path of destruction a...
Whilst we slept Monday night, a monster was lurking.
Beginning in the western part of the state, by the time it had reached Nashville it had swelled to an F3 tornado, sporting 150 mile per hour winds, and rapidly moving east.
Our county borders Nashville's county, and the tornado barreled down Interstate 40 destroying everything in it's path.
25 lives have been lost, scores unaccounted for, schools, businesses and homes destroyed.
The monster continued on it's path for 51 miles, and developed into an F4 with sustaining winds of 165-175 miles per hour.
We are one of the lucky ones, with no damage or injuries, but ooh, it is so hard to be grateful, when all around our little city, people are hurting.
The turnout of volunteers and agencies is incredible, it will take some time, we will rebuild, but for now it is one day at a time neighbor helping neighbor.
Your prayers would be greatly appreciated.
#Tennessee Strong.

So horrorable. I have been praying today for everyone!
Jo, it is so awful. When we first heard the news, I thought about you and your family. Had no idea how close you were to Nashville. So thankful you're safe. I feel sorry for all those in the path of the storm. I have such a fear of storms, I can hardly think about all they went through. My heart goes out to them all.
That is frightening. Glad you are safe.
Prayers for everyone suffering
Rough night. Glad to hear you are safe.
It is such a sad time for our state and all the lives that were lost. I'm glad you all were spared and are safe and sound.
I've been wondering if you were safe, and I thank God that you are. I pray for all of those in the path of this wicked tornado. You have a blessed day, hugs, Edna B.
There are so many sad stories of precious lives lost. Those monster storms that come in the night when people are sleeping are just terrible.
Even watching the video it is hard to comprehend what it must be like for those suffering the destruction of their homes.
So glad you are safe. I’ve followed your blog for years and so enjoy it.
Blessings.
I cannot look!
It was such a destructive tornado. I glad your home is safe. Having been through a tornado near by, it makes everyone pretty shaky.
