Days of heavy rain push dams to release water along the Pearl River and Tennessee River basin. TVA officials forecast continued rises and urged evacuations as homes flood and residents paddle to inspect property. Mississippi and Tennessee counties report widespread damage while reservoirs stabilize and river crests shift from 38 to 37.5 feet.
