We showed you some of these pictures yesterday of damage at Natural Bridge State Park in Powell County.
There was some damage in other places.
Here's Governor Andy Beshear from earlier today.
The worst is past us.
We had two days where the National Weather Service described it as as the worst forecast that they see during the entire course of a year.
And all in all, we in Kentucky got off pretty lucky.
While we did see some damage from the storm, there were no reports of injuries or fatalities, which is great news.
It's one of the reasons we sent people home early the last two days.
It's one of the reasons that we ask everybody to stay so weather aware because we made it through a lot of tough weather in the last year.
And while we lost one life in the round of 24, 22 to 24 tornadoes in that first week of April, it could have been a lot worse then.
It could have been a lot worse last night.
So thank you to Kentuckians for being weather aware.
Thank you to all our meteorologist and weather teams and news teams that are out there on the television, on the radio, and any way helping to keep people safe.

He says there were water rescues and three counties, Marion Logan and Simpson.
