...FUNNEL CLOUDS HAVE BEEN REPORTED NEAR MURFREESBORO...
WITH A LINE OF STRONG SHOWERS MOVING ACROSS EASTERN RUTHERFORD
COUNTY, SEVERAL INDIVIDUALS HAVE SIGHTED FUNNEL CLOUDS. THE MOST
RECENT REPORT WAS MADE AT 1110 AM NEAR EXIT 88 ON INTERSTATE 24.
THESE CELLS ARE MOVING TOWARD THE SOUTHEAST AROUND 5 MILES AN HOUR.
WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE AREA RUNNING IN THE UPPER 50S, IT IS LIKELY
THAT THESE SIGHTINGS ARE WHAT WE CALL COLD AIR FUNNELS, WHICH
SOMETIMES OCCUR IN COOL AND MARGINALLY UNSTABLE AIR MASSES IN THE
SPRING AND FALL. GIVEN THE NATURE OF COLD AIR FUNNELS, IT IS UNLIKELY
THAT THE FUNNELS WILL REACH THE GROUND OR PRODUCE ANY TYPE OF
DAMAGE.
