NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Folks who made their way downtown to join Nashville's 4th of July celebration had to deal with temps nearly hitting the century mark; in fact, it was the 3rd hottest 4th of July in Nashville history.
The music from the live performances wasn't the only sound dominating Lower Broadway today; the motors of oscillating fans misting passersby were also noticeable at several hydration stations throughout the downtown area.
Many who arrived from out of town told us they didn't anticipate the heat, while others said they still haven't acclimated to it even after years of calling Nashville home, all as thousands of people braved that heat to celebrate Independence Day.
I'm so thankful Robb Coles highlighted the Kamer Davis clinic in Hermitage and the hardship that may force its closure. The clinic provides care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities and there is no other place like it nearby. You can tell the staff is so passionate about the care they provide. I hope by shining the light on this, the right person can step in and make a difference.
