Good Friday Tornado

This is mostly so I can remember, but it's interesting too.  
So on Good Friday, Tennessee got hit pretty hard with ugly storms, and if I remember right, there were 6 tornadoes that made 9 touchdowns around Tennessee.  As I'm sure a lot of you already know, Murfreesboro was hit pretty darn hard, and suffered quite a bit of damage.  Murfreesboro is only about 3o minutes from where we live, so it was pretty close, and Jason and I both know quite a few people that live there.  Anyway, the biggest tornado was an F-4 tornado that was on the ground for 23 miles, and it was HUGE.  Here's a picture that has pretty much become a token picture for that storm.  Yes, that's the Harley Davidson store in front of the tornado, and the store suffered NO damage whatsoever.  Amazing...
