Tennessee is under a state of emergency Wednesday after the deadliest tornado day in seven years.
Survey teams reported damage caused by an EF-3 tornado in East Nashville, Donelson and in Mt. Juliet, about 20 miles east of Nashville, though it's unclear how many tornadoes touched down, said the National Weather Service, which is still surveying the damage.
