Winter storm closes Legislature until at least Wednesday
The heavy blanket of ice and snow depositing itself across the state has caused legislative leaders to cancel meetings until at least Wednesday.
State government was already closed Monday due to Presidents’ Day, but Senate Speaker Randy McNally announced the Cordell Hull Building would also be closed on Tuesday.
Legislative leaders will monitor further developments before making a decision about whether to return Wednesday.
Lighting strikes Tennessee Tower
Looks like the Tennessee Tower, the largest state office building, just got struck by lightning. Yikes!
Tennessee Tower took it on the chin a couple of minutes ago. Lightning still a threat today. #MidTownCam ^al pic.twitter.com/GSAhX64WeT
