On this day in 2003, an EF-1 tornado impacted an area along Lantana Rd, just south of Crossville. The storm downed numerous trees in the southern part of the city of Crossville. A shed was destroyed on Highland Drive. There were 16 homes damaged, and 21 power poles were broken. A large red oak tree fell and cut a home in half on Lantana Road. Also, a large oak tree fell on a Jeep pickup on Mimosa Dr. The South Cumberland Elementary School had broken windows, damage to the roof, and one portable classroom was a total loss. The pre-dawn severe weather outbreak produced seven tornadoes across Middle Tennessee.
