The National Weather service says preliminary evidence shows at least 3 tornadoes touched down in East Tennessee last Thursday. In Cocke County, officials say several students suffered minior injuries from flying glass and debris at Newport Grammar School after a gutter came loose and smashed a window in a fourth-grade classroom. A section of roof at the school was also ripped off causing significant water damage. Thousands were left without power after the storms brought down trees and power lines. The winds also pushed over a semi on I-40. The condition of the driver was not immediately released.
