VIDEO: Sky 5 gives us a birds-eye view of the flooding caused by this week's severe weather

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.

The Cumberland River also showed the volume of water moving through downtown.

Vandy's band of misfits turns heads with 7-1 start

This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams. The Vanderbilt football team's success has stolen the spotlight - what I love about Steve Layman's story is he reveals the individual hardships it took to get there. As Clark Lea says, "we all have scuff marks." This team proves perseverance pays off!
