EF0 tornado in Humphreys County, Tennessee

An EF-0 tornado touched down along Curtis Chapel Road just northwest of McEwen, where it damaged a small barn. The tornado continued eastward and damaged/uprooted some trees along CCC Road as well as caused some minor roof damage to a home. Additional damage was found on Tummins Road where a few trees were uprooted. The tornado appeared to dissipate shortly after that location.

From the late evening hours on March 2 into the early morning hours on March 3, supercell thunderstorms developed and spawned tornadoes across southeast Missouri, southern Kentucky, Tennessee, and central Alabama. One of these supercells formed near the Mississippi River in west Tennessee, then tracked eastward across the entire length of the state just north of the Interstate 40 corridor, spawning 10 tornadoes and dropping large hail bigger than the size of baseballs. Seven of these tornadoes touched down across Middle Tennessee, resulting in widespread damage, 307 injuries and 24 fatalities. An additional fatality and 2 more injuries occurred in Benton County in west Tennessee. These tornadoes were the worst seen in Tennessee since the devastating tornadoes of April 27, 2011 across east Tennessee, as well as the Super Tuesday tornadoes of February 5-6, 2008. Total damage estimates from the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency across Middle Tennessee reached $1.6 billion.
