Tennessee Storm Activity by County

Tracking hail, high-wind, and tornado reports across Tennessee? This page aggregates 2983 severe weather events recorded in 95 Tennessee counties over the last 12 months, including hail up to 2" and wind gusts up to 80 mph — every one sourced directly from official National Weather Service alerts and Storm Prediction Center verified reports. Pick a county for its day-by-day storm log, radar snapshots, and official warning excerpts.
Tennessee has no active hail or wind alerts right now, and the SPC discussion does not place a focused severe corridor over the state at this time. The main severe risk is farther west and north, where SPC notes widely scattered storms with hail up to 2 inches and damaging wind gusts across the central and southern Plains into the Ozark Plateau Saturday into Saturday night, with only isolated damaging wind gusts possible in the upper Ohio Valley; tornado risk is not highlighted for Tennessee in this guidance.
Statewide maxima from SPC verified reports and NWS warnings, last 12 months. Tornado EF ratings are assigned by NWS survey teams after ground surveys and published in NOAA's final storm records.

How Tennessee compares nationally
Ranked by SPC verified storm reports (wind, hail, tornado) across all 50 states over the last 12 months. Severity-weighted index scores each report by hazard (tornado ×20, hail ×4, wind ×1) so a single derecho's flood of wind reports doesn't outweigh tornado outbreaks. Recalculated daily as of Sep 11, 2026.
