I decided to post this, as I received an email from a forum member you was wondering if I was ok. I'm not sure how many of you have seen on the news the devastating flooding happening here in middle TN. The worse ever for Nashville. It started storming yesterday morning, and is still coming down in buckets, and is expected to do so the rest of the day. I live about 1/4 mile from the Cumberland river, but it's quite a ways below in a deep ravine, so as of now, no problems, except standing water in the yard. There have been some deaths reported, as well as the interstates here in the Nashville area closed. Please keep us in your prayers. Here's a link to a video of cars and even a building that were floating down Interstate 24 a few minutes south of Nashville yesterday.

I just drove through Nashville on Friday, on I-24. Then, yesterday, I walked by a TV that was showing a semi truck half underwater where I had just been. I don't know why people drive into water, but I know I've done it, too. Glad you're high and (mostly) dry, Misty.
 
I was through Nashville twice last week on the way and back from Talladega. It sure looks bad. Tennexplorer was getting lots of rain in Memphis also.
 
I now live in the Texas coastal plain, the only time my house flooded was when I was a few hundred yards from the highest point in Ohio near the summit of one of the highest points east of the Mississippi. It can happen anywhere.Good luck.
 
Thinking about you and y'all Misty! Be safe...

Funnel cloud went over my Dad and I's house last night about 8:30 here in Florence. You could hear the wind sucking on his chimney from our spot in the den. We've had a relatively mild spring so far, but it looks like this is about to change. Stay safe, Misty.
 
Just thought I'd let y'all know. I think I'm going to lose my house. Packing up my medicines, papers and some clothes now and loading up the car. Please continue to pray, and I'll update, as soon as I'm able.
