NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Authorities say rain from Tropical Depression Ida is temporarily hampering cleanup efforts for a rural Tennessee community ravaged by recent deadly flooding. But the extra dousing has brought on no recurrence of flooding Tuesday. The Humphreys County Emergency Management Agency said about 2.5 inches of rain fell overnight and showers were continuing throughout the day. Agency spokesperson Grey Collier said there was no flooding as of late Tuesday afternoon. The Tennessee National Guard was watching water levels in creek beds and under bridges, and police in flood-ravaged Waverly were on alert for any road flooding. The Aug. 21 flooding killed 20 people and damaged hundreds of structures.
