Raging river in Gatlinburg Tennessee after hours of rain. Floodwatch in Sevier County

[@RAMelloh-ij5sl]

Good to clear that bridge, just to be safe. People can wait. The water will probably be back down in hours. Never underestimate the power of water. It is good that there is very little debris in the river channel. If a 100 year old oak tree got washed out and fell into the river, it would come down like a multi-ton ton battering ram in the zero clearance condition at that bridge. It might even blow over the top of the bridge at whatever speed that water is going. We have seen it all in the past couple of weeks here in VT and NH, city centers, homes, businesses, roads and bridges have been destroyed by heavy rains. Good luck, everyone.

I used to come with my parents almost 2 or 3 times a month Iove this place I hope it doesn’t destroy it My parents are gone now but I still ❤️this place

[@Lovintofly55]

We were there during this event. Staying at the Greystone Lodge, the slow running creek off our patio turned into a raging River. It was amazing to watch. Feel terrible for those it personally affected. We were there on vacation from Texas and loved the rain!!

[@leeS04]

It’s common for that river to run high after rain in the mountains. Residents are used to it. Town and buildings built for it.

[@WeReviewU]

We filmed from Pigeon Forge, near Harpoon Harry's. The Spur got closed off, and we had to go back to Wears Valley. It was crazy weather, I suspected it to be at this level, in Gatlinburg, with over 4.00 inches of rain, falling in such a short time!

[@russellny8086]

Got 3.5 feet in our basement last week. Destroyed roads bridges ect. Stay safe

[@Bethanyview]

So very sorry for water in basement. Big mess

My most favorite place..my uncle now lives in Townsend, and I had cousins the Oliver Family that were original settlers in Cades Cove…

[@amandahudson431]

Surprised that small bridge is holding on😮

[@maryhall9251]

That's what I was think. That bridge could be washed away in a split second

[@dolliemaesone]

But by George they’re going to walk and drive on it 😂

[@Garythedog3]

I would get out of there!

[@russelltackett4779]

Lack of brain cells

[@SmokyMountainBlessed]

we were at the Old Mill the Little Pigeon River was rushing there too

[@Dharmarenee]

People don’t understand the concept of flash floods.

[@ronmacdougall9612]

I know I wouldn’t be standing close to any water running like that,it only takes a half a second to be twice as bad,believe me I have seen it.

[@Strange087]

In Chattanooga the Tennessee River is called SnaKe river 🏞😶

[@stuartowens3506]

Ugh! I can feel the humidity through the video! LOL

[@JanetPendley-sy9yn]

The rivers have been low,glad to see rivers filling.

[@Officialpaulsimon1]

So sorry for the pain and hardship this is causing, for all you. Am praying 🙏 for everyone.

[@maureenbauer685]

Use to live in the area and after a hard rain, raging water like this was not that uncommon.

[@MaryWilliams-fr2ts]

My Lord ! Raging water hitting divers places

[@maryayers9839]

[@blizzardboo9076]

Wow...aint been that high in a while. Prayers to all back home.

[@edriley2703]

I'd be evacuating at this point.

Looks like a fun river rafting trip. Whose in?

Was wondering what up there would look like. Down in Alcoa, we got a good hammering😅

[@cynthialong3132]

Prayers for all experiencing these troubling weather reports throughout the world as we turn to our Creator and Savior!

[@frankmacleod2565]

The Creator could have prevented the flooding. Are you suggesting he made a mistake?

[@Bethanyview]

Prayers from Virginia! We are all susceptible.?

[@erickort1987]

7:09 i wouldnt want to be walking across that street,what if big trees or other debris came roaring down

[@jarrodmauldin8836]

I was there last week on vacation while that rain was coming in. That area is not equipped to handle rain at all. It didn’t even rain that much.

[@micpoi7610]

Sorry to see some people going places where the danger is great. Why can’t people just stay home and keep out of trouble. With vehicles going over a bridge that could collapse and then some people would lose their life. Curiosity can take you life/. Stay home.😊

[@russelltackett4779]

People are crazy

[@kaycampbell8532]

Why do people always stand on a bridge when water is rushing like that?! Not very smart!

[@marymuthoni1551]

God have mercy

[@skipjack6974]

It is such a usual lazy river, but a sudden downpour changes it all.

Hey Gatlinburg, do you have an email address we can use to contact you regarding this video? I'd love to discuss a license to use this if possible! Cheers, Felix

LOL 😂, like it never has rained heavy in the last 5000 years.

[@agordianknot]

It's called rain, stupid. You don't want to experience it, go to the desert.

[@daughteroftheking374]

Right? So sick of Bible Prophecy denial 🙄

[@agordianknot]

@daughteroftheking374 If you would spend more time reading the Bible, you might discover what the rainbow in the sky means. God will never destroy the world by a flood again, and His promise is represented by the rainbow. The next time will be by fire.

Jesus son of Mary, peace be upon him, will descend in Syria on the wings of two angels, his face dripping water as if he had just come out of the shower, his breath will reach the tips of his fingers, any person who enters into the space of his breath will die immediately except for Muslims, he will kill the pig and break the cross and then pray in Al-Aqsa Mosque with Muslims, Then he calls the Christians to convert to Islam, He also recommended them before (in the Gospel of Barnabas) to believe in Muhammad, the Messenger of God peace be upon him.[61:6] And when Jesus son of Mary said: O Children of Israel! Lo! I am the messenger of Allah unto you, confirming that which was (revealed) before me in the Torah, and bringing good tidings of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One. Yet when he hath come unto them with clear proofs, they say: This is mere magic. [61:7] And who doeth greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie against Allah when he is summoned unto Al-Islam ? And Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk. [61:8] Fain would they put out the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light however much the disbelievers are averse. [61:9] He it is Who hath sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, that He may make it conqueror of all religion however much idolaters may be averse. 07٦
