Man I hope everyone is staying safe and seeking shelter, some of these storms are especially strong and it sounds like there's a solid F2 or F3 on the ground in one of the cells :(

A line of severe cells just N and W of Nashville TN. Two nasty-looking cells to the west of Nashville.

Thanks for the links. I'm trying to find some others - but nothing found from Nashville or Lexington.

Seymour, In has taken a direct hit. WLKY is reporting major damage to the High School and Subdivision next to it. People are being told to stay off the roads there to let the police search for victims.

Let's hope it doesn't. We have lots of friends and family in harm's way tonight. We shouldn't want to be breaking records.
