| Episode Narrative | From the morning through mid afternoon hours on Monday, April 4th, a line of showers and thunderstorms moved across Middle Tennessee ahead of the passage of a strong surface and upper level frontal system. As a result, a widespread convective wind event occurred across the area, resulting in numerous reports of thunderstorm wind damage. Also, severe thunderstorms produced several funnel clouds and a few tornadoes. |
| Event Narrative | Dozens of trees were snapped and uprooted extending from the edge of the Cheatham State Wildlife Management Area across River Road. There was some damage visible in an inaccessible area on the east side of the Cumberland River. The damage path likely extended further into the recreation area but the survey team could not access this area. |
