Severe weather and there's been at least one death.
That was in Louisville.
Here is Mayor Craig Greenberg from last night.
It's with a heavy heart that I'm reporting that we believe there is one fatality that is potentially related to this storm that happened in the Dixie Highway area in southern Louisville.
The Commerce Department will provide more information and we'll be the ones to confirm the information after they have alerted the family and made final conclusion.
However, our thoughts tonight are with the family of that individual who passed this evening potentially related to the storm.
Now, here are more details.
All four confirmed tornadoes in Kentucky have a preliminary EF one rating with top winds of 90 to 110 miles per hour.
The most significant damage occurred at an apartment building and the Pleasure Ridge Park area of Louisville.
A roof was torn off one building and several others damaged, displacing 50 residents and injuring one person.
Two if one tornadoes ripped through the Newburgh area, damaging buildings and downing trees and power lines.
The if one tornado in Made County damaged homes and snapped trees off.
Jo Prather Highway near Brandenburg.
Jon Gordon with the National Weather Service in Louisville has been assessing the destruction.
Oh, my gosh.
These four folks just East of Dixie Highway got hit yesterday at rush hour and all this damage we had, all of this tree damage.
We had insulation.
We had shingles.
What a mess.
I'm stunned that no one was injured or worse in this area right here.
Folks have a couple of ways to receive your warnings and be prepared for the next storm.
We are in severe weather season.
About 50,000 customers remain without power in Jefferson County.
