Residents detail horrors left behind by Tennessee flooding that left 21 dead

Residents of the Tennessee town that experienced catastrophic flooding over the weekend are describing the horrors left behind from the disaster that killed 21 people.

Many told ABC News the severity of the disaster caught them off guard.

Tarri Holderman said her 15-year-old niece, Lilly Bryant, is missing in Humphreys County after she and her sister, Kailynne, were swept away on a raft of debris. Kailynne was found alive but the family is still searching for Lilly, said.

Debris is scattered all over the area and houses were swept several feet away from their foundations, residents said. Some homes are still standing but are filled with mud and debris.
