TENNESSEE Flash flooding reported, more rain coming NASHVILLE — Heavy rainfall has soaked some of the same parts of central Tennessee that were inundated by severe floods in May, and forecasters warned Wednesday that more rain was expected. A train washed off its tracks, and rescuers plucked people from flooded vehicles and residents from an apartment complex about 80 miles northeast of Nashville as continued downpours were predicted to add to the flooding problems through the evening. Portions of Middle and East Tennessee as well as areas of southern Kentucky, western North Carolina and Virginia were under flash flood warnings or watches, according to the National Weather Service. Much of the damage in Middle Tennessee was in Putnam County where a home floated off its foundation and a train carrying sand derailed when the tracks were washed away. No injuries were reported, emergency officials said. In nearby Macon County, Sheriff Mark Gammons said emergency officials evacuated about 50 nursing home residents from a facility close to a rising creek, just as a precaution. Some were taken to a local hospital and others to the Tennessee National Guard armory in Lafayette. There were no reports of injuries, Gammons said. Heavy rains closed the Wilson County Fair, 30 miles east of Nashville, for the first time in its 157-year history. It’s the largest fair in Tennessee. WASHINGTON
