A slew of tornadoes ripped through central Tennessee early Tuesday, leaving a path of destruction in their wake that destroyed buildings, knocked out power for thousands and killed at least 22 people.

The National Weather Service Nashville said that the city of Mt. Juliet in Wilson County was hit by an EF-3 twister (the levels go up to 5) with winds of 155-160 miles per hour. Donelson, meanwhile, in Davidson County, also suffered EF-3 damage, with winds between 160-165 miles per hour.
