Bright & Early: End Of The World Edition

Good morning, Nashville. Parts of Nashville took quite the beating last night after a line of storms moved into the area just before dawn. As of 8am, NES reported that about 26,000 customers were without power and they’re actively working to restore everyone as soon as possible. The east side seemed to take the hardest [...]

Bright & Early: It’s A Marathon Edition

Good morning, Nashville. Thanks to the folks in the US House, our state is the proud recipient of $200 million more in federal flood relief aid. Though the midstate has made huge strides toward recovery in the past few months, many homes and businesses are still facing more damages than they can afford. Many folks [...]

Bright & Early: Food For Thought Edition

Good morning, Nashville. If you’ve ever enjoyed a hot dog, popcorn or even a beer at a Titans or Preds game, it might be worth knowing that 62% of LP Field food vendors and 59% of Bridgestone Arena food vendors had major health violations according to a recent inspection. Vendors at both facilities were found [...]

Happy Hour: We Saw The Sign

Steer clear of the airport area this afternoon and evening. Vice President Joe Biden will be jetting into town to speak at TNDP’s Jackson Day event and his security detail might back things up. [Tennessean] Also avoid I-40 in West Nashville this weekend in that one spot near White Bridge with the eternal construction. It’s [...]

Bright & Early: New Beginnings Edition

Good morning, Nashville. One of the biggest challenges with renovating the riverfront has been figuring out what to do with that eyesore of a scrap metal yard near LP Field, PSC Metals. The yard has been there for long, long time–so long, in fact, that it’s actually exempt from a lot of current city codes. [...]

We Have A Situation: Nashville Is Sinking [Flood 2010]

What a day, right? We’re looking at some of the worst flooding in decades, the interstates are closed, people’s houses are flooding, some cows are stranded, and it’s probably going to get worse before it gets better. We’ve done our best to keep you guys ahead of the storm via Twitter, but here are some [...]

Happy Hour: Get Off Our Lawn!

You know that it’s a slow news day when we start uncovering scandal and tragedy in the love life of one Davy Crockett. [Tennessean] This week’s construction traffic at BNA is supposed to be some of the the worst yet. Plan accordingly if you’re flying in or out of town this week. [WKRN] It’s a [...]

Happy Hour: You’re Not Gonna Reach Our Telephone

Greenbrier High School (White House, TN) faculty sent a kid home after he came to school wearing an “I <3 Lady Gay Gay” t-shirt, saying that it became too much of a distraction for the rest of the student body. Naturally, this has landed Middle Tennessee in the national news spotlight again and we apologize [...]

Bright & Early: Sock It Away Edition

Good morning, Nashville. We’ve all worried about our credit score from time to time, but we’ve never given much thought to the fact that Metro has one, too. And it just took a bit of a hit over the lending involved in building the new Music City Center. The Powers That Be (Fitch Ratings–a bond-rating [...]

Bright & Early: A House Is Not A Home Edition

Good morning, Nashville. We’ve been watching in amazement for nearly 24 hours as the folks at TDOT try to clear up an unusual problem on I-40: A flatbed truck carrying (we think) a mobile home got wedged underneath the Elm Hill Pike overpass yesterday afternoon at 1:40pm. Originally it was set to be cleared out [...]
