NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Residents and businesses all over Middle Tennessee have found themselves buried under several inches of flood water. NewsChannel 5 is no exception.
Water began pouring into the NewsChannel 5 newsroom about 8 a.m. Sunday.
Consumer reporter Jennifer Kraus was in the newsroom when water started pouring into the basement level of the building.
"The newsroom is in the basement. Our entire bottom floor was flooded," said Kraus. "Initially it looked like it was seeping and just all the sudden… everything."
Newsroom operations, editing bays, Talk of the Town, NewsChannel 5 Investigates, NewsChannel 5+ and NewsChannel5.com work areas were all affected.
A temporary makeshift newsroom was set up in the NewsChannel 5 loading dock.
