What the National Weather Service wrote

Concurrent to a public report of one inch hail, a trained spotter reported a measured 55 mph wind gust along with small to medium broken tree branches. Both events occurred in Bloomingdale.

The wider storm

An upper level low pressure system, coupled with an unstable atmosphere, allowed for scattered thunderstorms. Of these, one isolated supercell produced a couple instances of severe weather, including the first recorded September tornado in East Tennessee history.

Began near East Kingsport (36.5800, -82.5100).
