I've just learned of the storms that went through last night. They're showing clips of destruction and tallying up body counts on TV; my sympathies go out to those folks. I hope our hiking- friends found safe refuge.

Living up on top of a ridge in Middle Tennessee, just north of Nashville, my wind meter registered a all time record wind of 110 mph.... lots of limbs and such down, but no loss of life....

Current conditions on the trail according to Knoxville NWS has winds at Newfound Gap around 10 mph.... Morristown and Asheville, NC appear to be getting some very large winds of 20mph.

Our thoughts and prayers to everyone...
