Flood waters in Franklin - State of Emergency

It saddens me to say that are sweet little town is in for some major work ahead! The area has been delcared a disaster area and I hope FEMA comes in to assist! Many that have been flooded do not have flood insurance! This is the worst flood my 64 year old dad has ever seen, and he has seen a few! There are areas flooded that you would never think would have been! I've seen it on the news, but to see this in real life is just crazy! I'm so sad for those who have lost everything, but it reminds me of one thing - we can't take it with us when it's our time to go... I know that's probably easy for me to say, since I haven't lost anything really, but it's true. Still praying for everyone who is affected by this!

The Tennessean said: "More than 20 major roadways are flooded and several Franklin neighborhoods have been flooded. The Red Cross has set up an emergency temporary shelter at the Peoples Church at Mack Hatcher and Murfreesboro Road. Police are urging people not to drive past the road blocks, and for curiosity seekers to stay home and not come out to see the flooding. These actions could put emergency officials at risk!"
