    Why did it flood so fast in Middle Tennessee on Tuesday night?

    Flash flooding occurred rapidly in Middle Tennessee due to heavy rainfall exceeding ground and drainage system capacities. Saturated ground from prior rains and thunderstorms dropping 2-4 inches+ per hour caused immediate runoff, leading to flooded roadways, homes, and water rescues.
