Floodwaters cover the streets in downtown Franklin, Va., on Wednesday Sept. 22. Floyd's heavy rains last week caused the Blackwater River to flood the more then 180 shops and restaurants in Franklin's downtown business district. Flooded downtown merchants could lose months of income while the mess from Hurricane Floyd is cleaned up, so the city will help them set up shop temporarily in a cluster of trailers.
