In Frankfurt, they are breathing a little easier as the Kentucky River falls below the flood stage.

Cleanup has started.

City officials say a majority of streets and roads have been cleared.

The next major hurdle, they say getting the power turned back on and people back into their homes.

Phase two of the flood right now is the cleanup, and we're getting to that point, encouraging people to still be mindful of the major flood that we still have.

Even right now, we're at a level that would put it as a top ten flood of all time.

And so but we're seeing the river recede from the roadways.

Our crews and city crews are going out.

We're cleaning up the streets.

We're working to put out dumpsters in strategic locations in the affected areas so people can start.

Everyone's waiting to get back to their home.

They want to start to clean out and see what the damage is.

We still have some homes that are under water.

So I mean, we're just now starting to see, you know, it recede enough where people can get back to where they need to go.

We are just trying to manage people's expectations.

You know, the streets need to be cleaned.

Everyone wants the power turned on, but there's a lot of things that have to go into that before it can happen.

So like if anyone's power has been on the water, it has to be replaced.

The local planning board said they only had time to pull about 100m, and they probably should have pulled 300.

So we have these homes that are still kind of energized.

One of our swiftwater teams yesterday reported twice that they have a device.

There's electricity in the river.

So we really need people to understand this is still a very, very dangerous situation.

We just really need to focus on now, you know, safety still because there's still danger.

I just I just can't urge people enough.

Just be patient with us.

We have dumpsters coming.

We have electricians and electrical inspectors.

There's this assistance that we have to do, and we just hope everybody can be patient.

And, you know, the community is really come together.
