MicktheGreat 1 Posted April 8, 2006 As some of you may have heard, a series of tornadoes swept through Tennessee today, killing several people and damaging/destroying a lot of homes, businesses, cars, schools, etc. This is the 2nd time this week that the state has been ravaged by tornadoes. Last week, approximately 25 people were killed and lots of property was damaged from the storms. Today, thus far, approximately a dozen people have been found dead, with many more injured and/or homeless. While much of the state was subject to lots of rain, large amounts of hail, and strong winds, it was the area in middle Tennessee (surrounding Nashville) that was hardest hit. A few cities near Nashville, like Goodlettsville and Gallatin, were absolutely devastated by today's tornadoes. The sad thing is that many more storms are expected throughout the remainder of the night...essentially many Tennesseans are in for a very long night... Some pics (taken by various photographers) of today's events: Large Hail Home Destroyed Another Home Destroyed Cars Littering the Street Remains of a Neighborhood If you don't mind...keep us Tennesseans (especially those who have been adversely affected by the tornadoes thus far) in your thoughts and prayers in the upcoming days...
