EF0 tornado in Montgomery County, Tennessee

An EF-0 tornado impacted portions of Clarksville. The tornado began in a neighborhood in Fort Campbell. Damage consisted of shingles off of roofs as well as some small tree limbs snapped. The tornado continued east toward Highway 41 where an overhang structure was blown down at a car wash. The tornado then moved northeast through additional neighborhoods and across Outlaw Airfield. Damage in the neighborhoods included rotten trees downed, tree branches snapped, downed fences, shingles blown off roofs, and occasional vinyl siding and metal fascia damage. The tornado crossed Outlaw Field and uprooted a few trees on a farm just northeast of the airfield. The tornado then continued northeast into a large residential neighborhood causing additional minor structural and roof damage to several homes and snapping small tree limbs. The tornado dissipated somewhere near the Tennessee and Kentucky state line in an open field south of Interstate 24 as no additional damage was found of Allen Road. Damages are a rough estimate.

A potent low pressure system and cold front impacted a large part of the eastern United States on March 15 into the early morning hours of March 16, 2026. Ahead of this cold front, southerly non-thunderstorm winds strengthened across Middle Tennessee with 40 to 55 mph wind gusts common throughout much of the afternoon of March 15th. These winds caused several reports of downed trees and powerlines. The cold front along with a line of thunderstorms then approached from the west during the evening of March 15th and moved east through the early morning hours of March 16th. Damaging winds were the primary threat with this line of thunderstorms with many more reports of downed trees, tree branches, powerlines, and other damage received. This system was also responsible for three tornadoes, two of which were EF-1s. Fortunately, no injuries or fatalities occurred.
