Tennessee Floods
This is right here in my backyard. All these pics are from 1 to 10 minutes away from me.
It's a mess and it still hasn't stopped. Raw sewage is now floating through neighborhoods.

I used to live right over there, near the Food Lion up the road from you. I've already heard of apartment complexes being flooded, and neighbors panicking. Best of luck, and be safe!

CoCoRaHS precip maps
It's interesting to check the 24 hour precip maps from the local watchers at the CoCoRaHS site.
http://www.cocorahs.org/Maps/ViewMap.aspx
Just drag and click on Tenn and then the county.
To find multiple day totals you would have to check each station.
You can hunt and peck around Tenn to see where the most rain fell.
And CoCoRaHS is always looking for more volunteers.

....and just when you thought it couldn't get any worse - Naomi Judd's buffalo have escaped.

We're fine - just a bit of a mudslide onto our back patio (we live on a hill). I used to complain every time I had to mow - no more. Ours is the highest point in our neighborhood, so as long as we don't have ice on our driveway and too much mud to our rear, we're good.
How about you? Need any help?

Update
Video
If you don't think this is serious check the video.
we had a house blow up during a rescue attempt last night
even a navy base south of us flooded out.
this is BO' s Katrina and his in -actions will come back to bite him
prayers out to everyone in this fight.
