...Record Wet February Caps Off An Unusually Wet Winter...

The record rainfall seen across Middle Tennessee in February 2019
made this past month one of the wettest months of all-time. It
also capped off an unusually wet meteorological winter season
(December-January-February) throughout the region. In fact, this
winter (2018-2019) was the wettest ever for Crossville, and the
fifth wettest on record for Nashville.

Records for Nashville date back to 1871, and records for
Crossville date back to 1954.
