A strong cold front moved through the Southern Appalachians around mid day impacting much of East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia resulting in widespread wind damage. The air mass in advance of the front was associated with only weak instability. However, the wind field was very strong with favorable directional shear in a small part of Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.
