News Talk 94.1/AM 1600 Where The Upper Cumberland Talks
The National Weather Service is set to visit Fentress and Cumberland Counties Monday to assess and survey storm damage after what appeared to be a tornado touched down Sunday night.
Fentress County EMA Director James Bilbrey said there was damage to several residences, garages, and barns in the Allardt area. He said crews reported damages near Coon Hunter Lodge Road, Tinchtown Road, Mose Beaty Road and along Highway 52. He said as of 10 a.m. there are still no injuries reported, just property damage.
Cumberland County EMA Director Travis Cole said there had been no other major damage reported since last night. He said a second squall line that came through later that night knocked power our for many residences, but it has since been restored.
Putnam County EMA Director Tyler Smith reported downed trees and powerlines across areas of the county. He said there was no structural damage reported to EMA.
Clay County saw widespread power outages on and off from late afternoon and throughout the night caused by trees falling onto lines. EMA Director Kyle Haney said Tri-County Electric Membership Corporation worked throughout the night to get power restored.
