On this day, a squall line came through Middle and Eastern Tennessee producing moderate winds, of up to 65-70 Miles Per Hour. Along with this, in middle Tennessee, hail was produced and reported. In eastern Tennessee where, I happened to hop on to a "backyard chase", I observed heavy downfalls, and a moderatly well structured shelf cloud (arcus deck).

Here is the photographic report;
