NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — In what may feel like another weather downfall, Nashville has to suspend its trash pickup until Monday.

Metro Water Services explained that the road conditions in neighborhoods hadn't cleared up enough to run its normal routes.

"As for drop-off sites, we will resume site operations as soon as road conditions allow, though sites may be at capacity," city officials said. "Please know that these decisions were not made lightly and our top priority continues to be the safety and well-being of our employees and the community.

Without regular pick-up, convenience centers are slated to open on Saturday but could have to remain depending on the weather.

This is a beautiful story of chosen family, proving a father figure doesn't have to have biology in common to make a difference in a child's life. The story of De'Andre and Alex will remind you that our relationships help determine the course of our lives. And that being supportive of someone - through a meal, a shared experience or even swim lessons can make all the difference.
