Tennessee couple record fatal tornado from car: 'Dear Lord please spare us'

From The AP:
Severe storms tore through the central and southeast U.S. late Tuesday and Wednesday, spawning damaging tornadoes, producing massive hail, and killing two people in Tennessee and one person in North Carolina.

A storm that rumbled across northeastern Tennessee brought high winds that knocked down powerlines and trees. Claiborne County Sheriff Bob Brooks said a 22-year-old man was in a car struck by one of the trees.

Wednesday afternoon, a tornado emergency — the weather service's highest alert level — was issued for an area south of Nashville including the towns of Spring Hill, Chapel Hill and Eagleville.

The National Weather Service had previously reported a likely tornado on the ground in nearby Columbia, about 45 miles (72 kilometers) south of Nashville. People in Columbia were injured and homes were damaged, according to Lynn Thompson, assistant director of Maury County 911.

A video captured by Eva Grey Howard showed the frightful moment the tornado passes an area near Columbia, TN.

Howard shot the vide while her husband John Howard was driving in the car.

"John, l love you, baby, you know I love you I'right? Always will," Eva Grey Howards can be heard telling her husband as fearing they may be facing death of injury." Dear Lord please spare us," she is heard saying.

The couple escaped unscathed.
