Kentucky is dealing yet again with a deadly storm.

One person is dead and seven others hurt after a storm moved through southeastern Washington County this morning around 7 a.m..

The National Weather Service says it's found damage indicating it was possibly an F2 tornado.

The county judge executive says the storm hit with little warning.

This hit in a remote area of our county very close to the Bow County line, and there's no tornado sirens, that area of the county because it's so remote, very sparsely populated, which is a good thing for the amount of damages out there that own two homes are affected.

We do have, tornado alerts that the county sends out all cell phones, but the residents have to sign up to receive those.

So we have their numbers registered and they don't sign up to receive them.

And obviously, there was no warning of what's coming.

And furthermore, there were the warnings went out very, very briefly before the storm hit.

So it surprised a lot of people.

There was debris twisted everywhere, and all of the people that were just searching where they were.

They were hundreds of feet away from their homes, so they took a ride.

Unfortunately, when the call came in from, Mercer management got the roads blocked.

First responders weren't going to be able to get to the, victims.

So I mainly called the road supervisor and said, get your crew and all your heavy equipment and get there.

You just road opened up.

I was so pleased to watch this.

Men and women work for the good of our community with the other surrounding counties and agencies.

It's quite impressive.

First responders are under-recognized, underappreciated.

That's for sure.

According to emergency management, the storm destroyed two homes and some other buildings.

Of the seven people hurt, three were sent on to the UK Medical Center in Lexington.

One of them is a three year old child.

Today's deadly storm comes two weeks after our tornado killed 19 people and Laurel, Pulaski and Russell counties.
