We're on the Copiah/Simpson line. We experienced torrential rain for several hours with frequent lightning. There is water everywhere. Flash flood warning in effect. No news yet from Magee/Pinola/Taylorsville. Interesting that this heavy rain marks the anniversary of the Easter flood of 1979. It's dark now.....so we'll be waiting for sunrise to see what everything looks like.

Surprised we did not extend this Topic through today. Lots of tornado damage being reported as well as severe thunderstorms from the Midwest to the SE. I have had a very busy office day or I would have posted more.

[CrazyC83]

It pretty much sneaked up on us, considering yesterday was a total bust...I guess the Easter Bunny managed to silence the atmosphere enough?

[Dave]

Funnel cloud next county to my west at 5:05 pm todays date..warning on that county as well, probably one on me very soon.

Don't believe this information was posted on here. Good Friday in Middle TN was anything but good. Our ABC news afflitate just so happened to catch the Murfressboro tornado on their I-24 interstate camera. If you go to YouTube, just search WKRN and Murfressboro tornado and you will find that short 1:30 clip of them showing their radar on right and the skynet on the left. This was all shot while on air and I fully believe them catching this image, saved many lives. I was watching WMSV at this time and missed them show this on air, but this image reminds me of tornadoes you would typical see out in the Plains...not Middle TN.
