CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – When heavy rain is in the forecast, The Montgomery Emergency Management Office says they always have a plan in place.

“I’ll contact the street department and the county highway department,” said Ed Baggett, Director of Montgomery County Emergency Management. “They’re used to it and are prepared for it.”

The city of Clarksville is still recovering from heavier rain earlier this week, which forced some parks to close. The weather even canceled “Christmas on the Cumberland” Tuesday and Wednesday at McGregor Park.

Roads like Dunbar Cave and Madison are hotspots to watch out for.

As of Thursday afternoon, the county isn’t too concerned with flooding. But, they have crews ready to respond to calls and urge residents not to put themselves in danger.

“Keep your eyes open and if you see water across the road, do not cross it,” Baggett said.

Due to inclement weather, Clarksville canceled “Cops on Ice,” which was scheduled to take place on Friday from 6 A.M. to 9 P.M. at the Downtown Commons Winter Skating Rink. The event will not be rescheduled.

Heavy rain usually comes with a heavy price for the combined River Club and River’s Edge Grill, a popular restaurant and golf course nestled along the Red River.

“In the two years we’ve been open, we’ve dealt with a flood about three or four times,” said Felix Diaz, the restaurant’s General Manager.

“We have the maintenance crew that maintains the course and when there is a severe flood, we have a group of people that come and help out squeegee the greens so everyone can go back on the course to practice and play,” said Morgan Gardner, Assistant Golf Professional for the River Club.

Since they often deal with high water levels, they have a fast way of fixing the problem.

“We spend a lot of money on our drainage system, so we close for about a day and then the next day we open it like it never happened and the flooding goes away,” Gardner said.

What may be a headache for some business owners doesn’t seem to bother this staff who try to make the most of where they’re located.

“We don’t dread it, we just deal with it and keep on going and stay open for business,” Diaz said.
