The winds that roared across Kentucky on March third caused damage and issues in many places. Lexington City Council members got a review Tuesday on storm response in the state’s second-largest city.
Safety officials say communications are always a big issue when a natural disaster hits. And the hurricane-like winds from early March knocked out lines of communication at various levels. Some residents were without power for days. Lexington Emergency Management Director Pat Dugger said safety issues prevented Kentucky Utilities from doing restoration for the first 24 hours.
