The Knoxville area received more than 5 inches of rain over 48 hours — or more than an average February's worth of rainfall in two days. Since the downpour came on the heels of a wetter-than-normal January, much of that water did not seep into the ground but instead flowed into creeks, rivers and streams. Flooding forced officials to close a slew of roads and school systems across the region.
Officials at the nation's largest public utility sprang into action ahead of time, using TVA's network of 49 dams to move water down the Tennessee River and make room for the coming rains.
