Slowly but surely, the Commonwealth of Kentucky is powering back up. Officials say progress has been made in making electrical transmission repairs after a historical wind event Friday. Joe Arnold is with Kentucky Electric Co-operatives. At the peak, some 300,000 customers were without power among coops. Arnold said by mid-morning Monday, it was down to 43,000, but in rural areas, those are some of the more difficult tasks.
“To be transparent, if you’re still without power today, I would still plan for multiple days of being without power because these are often the hardest.”
