recorded 5½" of rain in my gauge. We're under a Flash Flood Warning until tomorrow night. I don't worry about flooding up here at our place. However the Middle Fork of the Holston River is behind us and there are several tributaries around the house. They periodically do flood. Laurel Springs Creek is below the house and it's been known to come out of it's banks but normally stays below the road.
