Tennessee’s rivers have fallen to just 16% of normal flow as the Southeast faces its worst widespread drought since 2007, putting water supplies, ecosystems, farming, and hydropower under growing pressure. This video explores how a region known for abundant rain is confronting shrinking rivers, failing reservoirs, stressed wildlife, and a full-scale hydrologic crisis stretching across multiple states. From collapsing streamflows and wildfire risk to drought-stricken communities adapting in real time, we break down the science and human impact behind the Southeast’s unfolding water emergency. Is this just another drought—or the beginning of a deeper shift in the Southeast’s relationship with water?
