Most of TN is red, but not Nashville. They aren't suing over the act of God, but over the lack of communication from the corps. Could they not have given at least a ten minute warning? Oh, yeah, we are opening the gates and there is about to be ten feet of water in your house. At least give them time to get in the car and drive out of there.
