At least 31 people were also reported missing after heavy rain caused catastrophic flooding on Saturday morning in Middle Tennessee.

The floodwaters swept away homes and took out roads, cellphone towers, and telephone lines, local officials said.

“Multiple bridges and roadways remain closed today from flooding and debris impacts. Telecommunication services in the area, particularly in Humphreys County, are limited as AT&T and Verizon move resources to the area to improve voice, data, and internet access for the public and responders,” the State of Tennessee Emergency Management Agency said in a statement.

“Search and rescue teams performed more than 20 rescues and evacuations yesterday, with searches conducted in approximately 100 homes and 25 businesses,” the statement added.
