Debris swirls around Jackson, Tennessee warehouse during a tornado-warned storm on Tuesday, May 20, 2025.

JACKSON, Tenn. – Troopers from Tennessee’s State Highway Patrol captured video of debris swirling over a warehouse in Jackson, Tennessee, on Tuesday afternoon as a tornado moved through the area.

Troopers said the winds were so intense, they were forced to take shelter. No one was injured.

The video showed parts of the roof of a nearby warehouse peeled off piece by piece, while other chunks of debris rotated overhead.

First responders ran out to assess damage minutes after the storm passed, according to a social media post from the agency.

The chief of the Madison County Fire Department told FOX13 Memphis that about 75 employees were inside the Kirkland’s Home warehouse at the time. The warehouse is roughly a mile from the Jackson Regional Airport.
