NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — All eyes remain on Sunday night into Monday morning with the threat of severe storms in the forecast. All of the NewsChannel 5 coverage area is under a threat for severe weather. Tornado Watch in place for most of our region until 3 AM tonight.

The timing for our Storm 5 Alert is 8 PM Sunday to 3 AM Monday. Damaging winds with gusts of 70 mph are the main threat. The possibility of a few tornadoes also can't be ruled out. Large hail and heavy rain leading to flooding are on the lower end of risks.

Make sure you have multiple ways to receive weather alerts Sunday night into Monday morning!

My friend and colleague Carrie Sharp had a lot of fun last week, on an adventure to a country more than three thousand miles away! She’s back now – sharing her Adventures in Iceland through stories, and incredible images of this remarkably beautiful and unique island nation (kudos to Chief Photographer Catherine Steward)! But did you know Nashville has something very important in common with Iceland? Tourism! Here, Carrie explains how a volcanic eruption decades ago helped save the country’s economy from collapse!
