Floods covered roads amid heavy rain in Tennessee, causing widespread disruption in the region.

Dramatic footage shows an inundated highway in Humphreys County, raising concerns for residents on April 3. Floodwater covered a section of TN Ridge Rd, making it impassable for motorists.

The Sheriff's Office issued a warning as water levels began to rise, urging people to have a plan to reach higher ground and avoid driving through standing water.

Deputies patrolled rural areas to monitor the situation.

The broader Middle Tennessee region braced for continued severe weather, with forecasts predicting up to a foot of rain by Sunday, April 6. This sparked fears of potential 'generational' flooding, especially in areas already saturated from previous rainfall.

Residents were advised to stay updated through local news sources and heed any evacuation orders or safety advisories issued by authorities.
