NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Flooding has remained a major concern across Middle Tennessee this week. Areas in Rutherford, Robertson and Sumner Counties were especially hard hit.

On Thursday, NewsChannel 5's helicopter Sky 5 gave us a birds-eye view of all the flooding damage.

In Rutherford County, you could see flooded fields near the Stones River.

Near Drakes Creek, there was plenty of park flooding as well.

Corbin, Vandy Boys support Sullivan family

Small gestures can have such a big impact. This story is proof. Sports Anchor Steve Layman shows how Vanderbilt Head Baseball Coach Tim Corbin, and his entire team, provided a much needed distraction for a young man and his family — facing an unthinkable tragedy. Yes, it’s just baseball. But on this day, it was so much more for everyone involved. Kudos to the Commodores!
