I'll call it good for now. The links should give you some specifics on a few items but for the most part common sense is what should guide you. Looking at the news I can say that while Smyrna and LaVergne got hit bad with the initial torrent the main problem is happening down stream in Nashville and other counties.
Thanks for the links, Gunner!
ReplyDeleteI see that the first link is to floodsafety.com. I spent some time reading articles on that site as the rains fell on Saturday. Fortunately I did not need to use what I learned, but it looked like a great resource.
There are more links over at http://nashvillest.com/ . Some of the information is only relevant to Nashville residents, but a lot of it would apply to anyone in this area.
