Apparently, a weather spotter saw a funnel cloud in Eagleton Village (which is in the Alcoa area) earlier. That's 10 minutes away from my house.
 
That pic looks like it has one of those smaller tornadoes coming out of the larger one. It’s on the right.

VK should be around to answer that.

He should be stoked to see it!

The sky turned light blue then rumbles of thunder. After that you heard the winds that sounded like a train. We wasn’t even close but everyone at the house was freaking out then the alarms came and we headed toward the bottom Corner of the basement.
