This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 34.200.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:16, 2 September 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

==Meteorological synopsis==
[[File:December 9, 2023 SPC Tornado Outlook 20Z.gif|thumb|left|The tornado outlook issued by the SPC on the afternoon of December 9 (20:00 UTC)]]
On December 5, the [[Storm Prediction Center]] issued a 5-day severe weather risk ahead of predictions that strong [[convective instability]] and [[wind shear]] would occur across portions of the [[Southern United States]], from east [[Texas]] to western [[Mississippi]].<ref>((Cite web |title=Day 4-8 Severe Weather Outlook Issued on Dec 5, 2023 |url=https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/exper/day4-8/archive/2023/day4-8_20231205.html |access-date=December 10, 2023 |website=[[Storm Prediction Center]]))</ref>

By December 7, a slight risk was posted in a large region from [[Louisiana]] to Kentucky. Uncertainties remained over the instability of airmass and the development of low-level flow conducive to tornado-inducing thunderstorms.<ref>((Cite web |title=Dec 7, 2023 0830 UTC Day 3 Severe Thunderstorm Outlook |url=https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/archive/event.php?date=20231209 |access-date=December 10, 2023 |website=[[Storm Prediction Center]]))</ref> By the next day, the slight risk was maintained for the same general area, and a 5% risk corridor for [[tornado]]es was introduced for all of the northern sections of the main risk area, extending from extreme eastern [[Texas]], south and southeastern [[Arkansas]], northern [[Mississippi]], northwestern [[Alabama]], western and central [[Tennessee]], and southwestern [[Kentucky]].<ref name="ref">((Cite web |title=Dec 8, 2023 1730 UTC Day 2 Convective Outlook |url=https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/archive/event.php?date=20231209 |access-date=December 10, 2023 |website=[[Storm Prediction Center]]))</ref> In this outlook, the SPC described the atmosphere and conditions as favorable for severe weather, as [[convective available potential energy]] (CAPE) values reached 500 J/kg in the main risk area, favorable low-level [[wind shear]] ahead of the expected upper-level [[Trough (meteorology)|trough]], and moderate instability were all present to allow for sustained thunderstorm development.<ref name="ref" />

On December 9, the outlook was maintained at slight risk up until 1630 [[UTC]]. In this last outlook, the main 5% corridor was enlarged to include portions of extreme northwestern [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]], most of northern Alabama, and central portions of Tennessee, all the way to the [[Knoxville, Tennessee|Knoxville]] vicinity. Elevated [[dew point]]s reaching 60&nbsp;°F were expected to be present ahead of the passing of an advancing [[cold front]], which, in combination with the aforementioned factors, created a very favorable atmosphere for severe weather. However, uncertainties in the extent of the tornado threat were still sufficient to avoid a categorical upgrade.<ref>((Cite web |title=Dec 9, 2023 1630 UTC Day 1 Convective Outlook|url=https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/archive/event.php?date=20231209 |access-date=December 10, 2023 |website=[[Storm Prediction Center]]))</ref> The first area of concern that the SPC identified extended from southeastern Arkansas northeastward through portions of Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee into southwestern Kentucky. Within this area, tornadoes and large hail were expected to be the primary hazards with isolated supercells before the damaging wind potential increased as storm coverage increased.<ref>((cite web |title=Mesoscale Discussion 2304 |url=https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md2304.html |website=[[Storm Prediction Center]] |access-date=21 December 2023))</ref> The first of what would be eight [[tornado watch]]es during this event was issued shortly before this outlook, mentioning a moderate (60%) chance for tornadoes, and a low (20%) probability for strong (EF2+) tornadoes.<ref>((Cite web |title=Tornado Watch 714 |url=https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/2023/ww0714.html |access-date=December 10, 2023 |website=[[Storm Prediction Center]]))</ref>

It tracked east-northeast, causing minor EF0 damage to trees and residences.<ref name="DAT" /> The tornado then quickly reached high-end EF1 intensity as it approached and crossed [[U.S. Route 31W|US 31W]]/[[U.S. Route 41 in Tennessee|US 41]]. Multiple outbuildings, a motel, and warehouses were heavily damaged or destroyed and multiple trees were snapped. Further to the northeast, additional damage occurred to residences, trees, and power lines as the tornado crossed [[Old Hickory Boulevard]] ([[Tennessee State Route 45|SR 45]]), and [[Interstate 65 in Tennessee|I-65]]. As the tornado entered the north side of [[Madison, Tennessee|Madison]], dozens of trees and power poles were snapped or uprooted, and numerous buildings, including businesses, warehouses, churches, and residences were damaged or destroyed at EF2 intensity. Three fatalities occurred when multiple mobile homes were destroyed in this area along Nesbitt Lane.

Before crossing [[U.S. Route 31E|US 31E]], the tornado impacted an [[electrical substation]], triggering multiple large power flashes and then an explosion when it impacted an [[Transformer oil|oil reservoir]]. The explosion, as well as direct heat from the substation, caused a drop in [[relative humidity]] inside the tornado's [[condensation funnel]], which, in turn, significantly reduced the tornado's visibility. The explosion was seen and captured on video by numerous residents inside the Nashville metro; it was also streamed live by a [[Webcam|public live camera]] in Hendersonville.<ref>((Cite web |title=Watch: Nashville tornado hit Madison power station causing fiery explosion. |url=https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/local/davidson/2023/12/11/nashville-tornado-hit-madison-power-station-causing-fiery-explosion/71882854007/ |access-date=2023-12-13 |website=The Tennessean |language=en-US))</ref><ref>((Cite web |last=Lanza |first=Matt |date=2023-12-12 |title=Let's talk about the concept of blowing up a tornado |url=https://theeyewall.com/lets-talk-about-the-concept-of-blowing-up-a-tornado/ |access-date=2023-12-13 |website=The Eyewall |language=en-US))</ref> This was the first time a tornado had directly struck a Nashville Electric Service power substation since the [[1974 Super Outbreak]].<ref>((Cite web |title=Super Outbreak of 1974 ((!))

The tornado continued past the substation and crossed US 31E while maintaining EF2 intensity, heavily damaging or destroying homes and warehouses, and snapping or uprooting trees and power poles. The tornado continued northeastward and reached its peak intensity of high-end EF2 as it moved along and over the [[Cumberland River]] and [[Old Hickory Lake]] into the western part of [[Hendersonville, Tennessee|Hendersonville]] in [[Sumner County, Tennessee|Sumner County]]. Hundreds of trees were blown down at the [[Old Hickory Dam]], multiple buildings and warehouses at the dam site and a nearby marina were heavily damaged or destroyed; and a ((convert|75|ft|m|abbr=out|adj=on)) microwave tower was crumpled to the ground. The tornado then weakened to high-end EF1 intensity as it approached and moved through the center of Hendersonville along US 31E.

Heavy damage occurred throughout the area, with multiple businesses at a strip mall reporting heavy roof damage with exterior wall collapses, several warehouses, other businesses, and outbuildings being heavily damaged or collapsed, homes suffering severe roof, siding, and exterior wall damage, and dozens of trees and power poles being snapped or uprooted. One two-story home in the area also had its entire roof removed, causing severe damage to the second floor's exterior walls. Past Hendersonville, the tornado caused more sporadic damage, mainly in the form of fallen trees and snapped power poles. Some homes and businesses suffered roof and siding damage, and a barn was heavily damaged with debris from the structure damaging a home. Two homes near the [[Tennessee State Route 386|SR 386]]/US 31E interchange suffered heavy roof damage, with one of them also having its garage cave in. As the tornado approached Station Camp Creek, more homes, apartments, and condos were damaged, including another two-story home that had the second floor roof removed, a gas station canopy was blown over, and more trees were snapped.<ref name="DAT" />

After crossing the creek, the tornado intensified as it moved into neighborhoods to the southwest of [[Gallatin, Tennessee|Gallatin]] from the southwest. Multiple well-built homes in the area suffered partial to complete roof removal; other homes suffered minor to moderate roof damage; trees were snapped (including at least one that fell on a home); and a metal truss tower was collapsed. Damage in this area was rated high-end EF1 to EF2. The tornado weakened to EF1 intensity again, but continued to cause heavy damage to homes as it moved through the southern part of Gallatin and crossed [[Tennessee State Route 109|SR 109]].

Several homes had their roofs partially or totally removed, and many trees and power poles were knocked down. Warehouses at the nearby [[Music City Executive Airport]] were also heavily damaged, and more homes northeast of there had varying degrees of roof damage, with another home having its roof removed, along with more down trees. The tornado then passed just south of [[Cairo, Sumner County, Tennessee|Cairo]], heavily damaging an old barn country store along [[Tennessee State Route 25|SR 25]], knocking down trees, and inflicting minor damage to outbuildings. It passed north of [[Castalian Springs, Tennessee|Castalian Springs]]. It then continued into [[Trousdale County, Tennessee|Trousdale County]], inflicting one last area of EF1 damage to trees near Templow before it dissipated northwest of [[Hartsville, Tennessee|Hartsville]].<ref name="DAT" />

The tornado killed three people and injured another three along its ((convert|35.27|mi|km|adj=on)) path that reached a peak width of ((convert|600|yd|m)).
