19 dead so far.
make that 21.
She lives in Cookeville - which was hit. I just tried calling her and it went directly to voicemail.
Prayers going up. Tears in my eyes.
All circuits are busy.
Sad 
praying
Oh my goodness . Keeping everyone in my thoughts .
Hope we hear word from her as well soon .
WE'RE OK. Had earplugs in last night. Heard thunder sometime during the wee hours. Had a brief tornado? thought. But our weather radio wasn't screaming at us. Awakened to the news that there was a tornado that passed by REAL CLOSE. We were spared. Thank you for thinking of me.
Thank God.
Thank you for checking in, thank you for you are safe!
Praise God you are safe. Praying for any injured and families of those who were killed.
SOOOOOOO happy to see that lovely G!!!!! I have been worried. Glad you are OK. Will pray for our other EXER.
Giulia - So happy that you are okay. Prayers for the people of Tennessee .....
HOORAY FOR MY LORD JESUS
YAHOOOOOOOO so good to hear from YOU
Prayers for Kdot1st for safety and of loved ones.
Also for any injured.
And for the families and friends of any who passed as a result.
(On a personal note have sent out e-mails to my family in Fall Branch and in Johnson City, Tennessee- waiting responses)
Thank you!! Have received word they are fine- My daughter-in-law educated me that not only are they are about 4 hours east of Memphis, they are also in an area surrounded by mountains which help guard against tornadoes.
I just saw some of the photos of the destruction near here. It's amazing how one can be missed by such a powerful event. This could have been our house.
My heart aches for all affected by this disaster.

Terrifying!
Whew! So glad you are alright. Kdot1st hope you and family are safe as well. Sending prayers to all those affected in the tornada.
Glad they're ok, Nancy.
Here's another shot. Some houses look fine, and then right next door they're just GONE.
So sad. Difficult to contemplate. Thankful for those spared.
The devastation is absolutely horrific. I contacted friends of ours who were living in Nashville, last we knew, but they moved to Florida a couple of months ago. They said their friends in Nashville were absolutely devastated.
Saying prayers for all.

Giulia I about got sick when I heard you were not here and everyone trying to reach you. I THANK GOD you and Rand are okay. Love you and sending prayers for your community.
We're fine too. Missed us by 3.4 miles. But we're could hear it & see flashes in the distance. There's a lot of people that lost everything. 2 lives lost in Nashville & 24 lost souls across Tennessee. Tracked it like 80 miles.
It was said to have been very large & violent.
You were closer than we were kdot at 3.4 miles away. Doesn't really matter. Latest count here are 18 dead 70 missing. If you pray - pray for our community and those others decimated by this nasty thang. It really make you think, though. Why was that house totally destroyed and the one next to it not. No answer, really, just fate and the turn of the winds.
So many people here have volunteered to help that they've requested no more volunteers. Well this is called the Volunteer State for a reason.
Giulia I am so sorry for those who lost loved ones and those who lost their homes. Tornadoes hitting in the middle of the night are so scary. I guess they are scary at any time. This one looks as though it was particularly violent. Makes my heart hurt for those left behind.
I heard that they did not want any more volunteers, that is pretty impressive, Volunteer State or not.
Love,
Ellen
Oh No....yes I hope and pray she and all are well...I must check it out...I didn’t know TN had bad weather...
Giulia ....
