Woman drowns in car as Nashville storms lash city
Violent weather across the region left two dead including a Nashville woman whose car was swamped by floodwaters on U S 231. A 39 year old McKenzie, Tennessee man also died after being swept into a culvert debris clearing. Thunderstorms and flash floods shut major roads, with tornado watches posted from Arkansas to Kentucky. The National Guard was activated in Tennessee to respond to floods affecting Wilson and nearby counties. Sheriff Terry Ashe called it the worst flood in years as water rose to five feet in Nashville and isolated thousands.
