Severe Flooding Hits Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio; At Least Four Dead

Severe flooding has impacted Western Kentucky and Southern Indiana, with the Ohio River cresting at levels not seen since 1945, prompting evacuations and significant damage across the region. In Henderson County, Kentucky, the rising waters have forced residents from their homes, while the Ohio River is expected to crest at 48 feet, well above the flood stage. Recent footage captured the devastation, including submerged roads and floating debris, while at least four casualties have been reported statewide in Kentucky. In Cincinnati, the river has also risen significantly, breaking a seven-year record at over 60 feet, affecting local parks and roads. As the waters begin to recede, cleanup efforts are anticipated to commence in affected areas. Drone photography has highlighted both the destruction and unexpected beauty amidst the flooding.
