Powerful Storm Hits Tenn., Leaves Thousands Powerless in Texas

The National Weather Service issued a severe thunderstorm warning across central Tennessee and Kentucky on Thursday, while damaging winds left more than 250,000 homes and businesses without power across Texas. But, a lead forecaster at The Weather Channel said of Friday: "There is a very low chance of tornadoes throughout the day."
