| Episode Narrative |
A mesoscale convective system (MCS) tracked east through the Tennessee Valley. The center of this system tracked through southern Tennessee, while an associated squall line produced damaging thunderstorm winds in Marshall County Alabama. Trees and power lines were knocked down in several communities throughout the southern portion of the county. |
