Storms Leave 50K Without Power | Louisville News

from Louisville News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Power outages hit 50,000 homes after weekend storms tore through, snapping trees and power lines—crews are racing to fix 10 broken poles and 170 downed wires. Residents braved the dark, some huddled outside with neighbors, others fretting over spoiled food. Utilities are pushing for full restoration by Monday night, but some may still be in the dark Tuesday morning. They’re also upgrading infrastructure with stronger poles, better wiring, and smarter tech to prevent future blackouts—and if you spot downed lines, stay back and report them immediately.
