brettjrob Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Cell in Lawrence Co. that earlier passed over Hackleburg/Phil Campbell is trying to reintensify now. One would think it will quickly feel the effects of the cold air along and E of I-65, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernNJ Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 An extremely dangerous situation shaping up for the greater Nashville area as a line with winds of 70-80 MPH is about to hammer them.
