Dollywood closed after flash flood damage
Dolly Parton’s theme park in Tennessee was hit by flash floods at the weekend.
One person was injured as flood waters damaged the interiors of stores at Dollywood.
The parking lots were under flood waters almost waste deep with guests unable to get their vehicles.
To compound this, the exit road collapsed.
This happened soon after the National Weather Service relayed a flash flood warning of the area on Sunday.
The theme park said: “Dollywood is supporting guests whose vehicles were affected by this weather event, and cleanup crews have been deployed.”
Video posted online showed fast flowing flood waters cascading past buildings and rides.
There has been no word yet on whether the theme park will reopen on Monday.
