After a tornado ripped through Morgan County last week, the damage in the area is being assessed. Nearly 40 homes have been impacted. However, Morgan County is likely not to receive any federal funding for the damage caused.

Two people are dead in Morgan County, Tenn., after a tornado swept through the area on Thursday, Feb. 6. Here's what we know so far.

The year’s first deadly US tornado struck after dark Thursday, killing two people in a small East Tennessee community as the first of five back-to-back, jet stream-driven winter storms pummeled the eastern United States.

A possible tornado in East Tennessee killed two and injured three others on Thursday. This could also be the first tornado of the 2025 season.

A tornado swept through a swath of Tennessee, killing a mother and daughter and injuring at least three other people as it caused severe property damage, officials said.

Officials in eastern Tennessee say two people were killed when severe storms with two tornadoes moved through the region.

Following the death of at least two people and several people being injured, the National Weather Service has confirmed a tornado touched down in Morgan County on Thursday. NWS said an EF-2 tornado touched down near Deer Lodge on.

The tornadoes, which also injured three people and caused widespread damage, reached wind speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour.

On Thursday, part of Morgan County was hit by an EF2 tornado, although it is not the first one the county has seen. Just last year, the town of Sunbright was hit by a EF1 tornado, and in 2002, 7 people were killed after an EF3 tornado touched down in the Mossy Grove area.

Three other people were injured as storms moved through the eastern part of the state Thursday, officials said.
