That is what the National Weather Service has deemed this tornado. Wow. They have also added EIGHT more miles of damage to the length of the tornado making it a 23 mile path. It also puts some other cemeteries in our county in the path. Most notably the Rocky Glade(Downing) Cemetery. I will wait a few weeks before getting out to check on these places(more bad weather forecast for this weekend).
One of the homes near Medical Center Parkway.
Hazens Brigade Monument. The tornado went right over the monument. From other photos I've seen on Daily News Journal, some tree branches ended up in the small fenced graveyard, but it didn't appear there was any damage to anything. The Stones River National Cemetery did receive damage though, a tree fell over and took out a section of the southern wall. I could also see some other trees down inside the cemetery, but I couldn't tell if any markers were damaged.

From talking to folks at the park, it seems only one stone was damaged. It was in the main portion of the cemetery and is cracked.
