Compared with other States, Tennessee ranks number 23 for frequency of tornadoes; it averages 12 a year according to the Tennessee Disaster Center website.

In Jackson, Tn the Union University campus suffered a great deal of damage.
Macon County, Tn however was hardest hit.
Dozens of Tornados and storms slam Sumner and Macon County around 10pm, first sparking a massive fire in Macon. A fire at the Columbia Gulf gas transmission facility was raging about a half-mile east of the Macon-Sumner County line, off Highway 141.
(some of the orignal news reports listed it as Hartsville but its 5 miles from hartsville in Macon County.)
Police have shut down Highway 25/Hartsville Pike from Highway 231 through Castalian Springs in Sumner County. The Castalian Springs Post Office was leveled.

Thanks for reposting this - I don't think we realize how vulnerable we are and how fragile life is until we see something like this. How very grateful we should be to God for everything He has blessed us with...
