Tornado in Nashville

Post by Ray Minich »

The news this morning indicates that Nashville got some nasty winds downtown. I certainly hope that all is well with the members of our community. Please update with news if anyone is able.

Thanks.

News indicates Woodland Street, which is across the river from Broadway, took one heck of a beating...

Would anyone possibly know about Ray Alan from Suncoast, the guy that makes the steel guitar legs?

He lives in Mt Juliet and I have not been able to contact him. Sure hoping for the best. He is buddies with Billy Robinson and some of the other Nashville Steel Club people.

It's definitely a mess here. Fortunately Teresa and I are fine. But the devastation in Germantown, East Nashville's 5 points, Hermitage, Mount Juliet got it bad.
Putnam county got it worse with 18 of the 24 confirmed deaths there.
They are saying the damage is worse now than when the last [big] tornado hit here in 1998.
Thanks for everyone's prayers and thoughts.
