Ok at my house except lost electricity for about 16 hours. Fortunately it was pretty warm, and the propane heater runs without electricity. The battery was dead in my backup electrical system, so I didn't have any air circulation for most of the time with the power out. Fortunately we got power about 2 hours after sunset when the temperatures really started to drop.

I was very lucky since the tornadoes did hit about 2-3 miles from my house, and some of our friends lost their houses, barns, and cars. Fortunately no loss of life in our community, but definitely devastating property losses. I live SW of Nashville, and the tornadoes seemed to go through our area, jump over Nashville and wipe out some communities on the NE side of Nashville.
