NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — If you're headed out for one last summer vacation this Labor Day weekend, you've got some company!

The TSA says more than 17 million people are expected to pass through airports across the country through next Wednesday.

That makes it the busiest Labor Day weekend on record!

TSA says today will be the busiest travel day during that stretch with nearly 3 million people expected to be screened today.

Meanwhile, if you're driving this weekend, AAA says the best time to hit the road today is before noon or after 7 p.m.

Hermitage clinic for disabled patients set to close, cites loss of funding

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.
