Tornado Toll Grows Across Tennessee and Alabama
Reports describe destruction across Dyer County and Sharon Tennessee with 4 homes and a Negro church demolished in Dyersburg. In Sharon, 35 structures toppled, three injured believed fatal, and fires suppressed. Rescue teams hunt for victims as communications recover slowly and ambulances remain scarce. In Alabama, a 32-death toll and 100 plus injured span Walker to Jefferson counties, with Sayre and Bradford hardest hit and Majestic camp largely wiped out. A cyclone near Nashville adds four deaths and multiple injuries, with victims from Caruthersville visiting the Couch home.
