In Davidson County, multiple reports of downed power lines from strong winds during one of the severe storms came in from locations like Belmont Boulevard, Wildwood Avenue, Park Avenue, 12th Avenue North, and Belle Meade Boulevard.
Those downed lines created power outages throughout most of the western portion of Nashville, as well as many other locations throughout Davidson County. At one point, more than 7,000 customers were without power as crews worked to fix the issue.
As of 6:30 p.m. Sunday, nearly 6,000 remained without power. By 9:30 p.m. that number had lowered to slightly more than 3,500, and by 11 p.m. it had dropped to just under 2,000.
