Officials say a large sinkhole has opened up in south Georgia beneath floodwaters dumped by Tropical Storm Fay. Plantation Woods, off U.S. 19 south of Thomasville, was partially flooded by storm runoff a week ago. Late Thursday, the sinkhole began to open up and was estimated on Friday at 50 feet wide by 50 feet deep. Witnesses say the sink hole sucked in water and several trees as it came within 10 feet of a nearby house.
