There's still 2 people missing in Antioch that tried to "raft" across Mill Creek (with a third person who made it across) on tied together tubes. Sorry, but I think I'd have waited on help on my roof. It's nuts down there from what I see on the news and FB...I can't imagine actually being there! I was planning on having a yard sale to get rid of excess clothes, but I think I'm going to hang on to them for the Red Cross now.

Just curious, did they not try to sandbag or put up HESCO barriers or dike anything off to prevent this?
Or did they just wake up in the morning and "oh shit there's 3 feet of water in my house"? Just asking, having dealt with flooding growing up, there is generally a little bit of warning, unless it is entirely flash floods from rains.

it was flash flooding. Nashville for the entire month of May usually only gets 5 inches of rain. We got about 15 inches in 2 days. I have been in Nashville for 8 years and never seen ANY flooding. These neighborhoods are 100's of yards away from the river. no one expected water to come up this high. They are now releaseing the damns which is making things worse.
