Sheriffs Office PIO Lisa Marchesoni noted that both West Jefferson Pike and the Midland Community also had several trees felled by the high winds. 

Murfreesboro Police PIO Larry Flowers told WGNS that the city faired better as there were no downed trees or street closures reported.  However, wires were reported down at W. Thompson and Leanna Road. 

Also in Murfreesboro, City Street crews responded to Memorial Blvd. and West Thompson Road to clear the "high water" problem.
