The May 2010 Tennessee floods were floods in Middle Tennessee, West Tennessee, South Central and Western Kentucky and northern Mississippi as the result of torrential rains on May 1 and 2, 2010. Floods from these rains affected the area for several days afterwards, resulting in a number of deaths and widespread property damage.

Rain totals in some areas were greater than 17 inches (43 cm). The Cumberland River crested at 51.86 feet in Nashville, a level not seen since 1937, which was before the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers flood control measures were in place. All-time record crests were observed on the Cumberland River at Clarksville, the Duck River at Centerville and Hurricane Mills, the Buffalo River at Lobelville, the Harpeth River at Kingston Springs and Bellevue, and the Red River at Port Royal.

Casualties

Nineteen deaths have been recorded in Tennessee, including ten in Davidson County, which includes Nashville. Of the ten dead in Davidson County, "four victims were found in their homes, two were in cars and four were outdoors."

Floods and tornadoes killed six people in northern Mississippi, and four deaths were reported in Kentucky.

Mississippi deaths occurred in the following counties:

Alcorn County – 1 dead
Benton County – 2 dead
Lafayette County – 1 dead
Lee County – 1 dead in hydroplaning accident on U.S. Route 45 in Tupelo
Union County – 1 dead in hydroplaning accident on Mississippi Route 78

Flooding on the Forked Deer River

The National Weather Service expects water levels in Dyersburg and Dyer County to remain at a major flood stage through Friday, May 7, dipping just under the "major flood" marker of 26.5 feet on Saturday, May 8—the last day projected by the service. The Forked Deer River rose 7 feet overnight on Sunday, measuring 24.56 feet at 5 a.m. on Monday morning. At 4 p.m., on Monday afternoon, the river was 28.86 feet and still rising.

The NWS has pushed back its timeline for the crest of the Forked Deer River to 7 a.m., on Wednesday, May 5. The river is predicted to crest at approximately 30 feet, a level not seen since Jan. 1, 1937.

It was estimated Monday morning that 200 structures and 600 residences will be adversely affected by the floodwaters.
