High winds will likely lead to power outages

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A powerful storm system is bringing everything from snow to severe weather across parts of the country.

Across the Mid-South, we will experience heavy rain and very windy conditions from this system. Because of high winds, a wind advisory is in effect until Midnight Tuesday.

With sustained winds between 15 to 25 mph, that in itself is enough to lead to power outages. But, wind gusts in excess of 40 mph will increase that threat, as well as concerns for tree branches and trees being knocked over.

Nashville Electric Service says to prepare now by charging your personal devices and back-up portable chargers.

Eight brand new Corvettes were stolen from GM's Bowling Green plant. How good neighbors spoiled the heist

The line ''see something, say something" took on new meaning recently in Bowling Green. Two alert neighbors helped tip police to stolen Corvettes from the nearby assembly plant. That led law enforcement to find 8 stolen Corvettes worth over $1 million. We may all be able to learn a little lesson from this.
