GOOD SATURDAY EVENING TO YOU. I맥스카지노M ALEXA ST. MATTHEWS. NOW, AFTER A WEEK OF FLOODING THROUGHOUT KENTUCKY, MANY COMMUNITIES ARE NOW TRYING TO CLEAN UP THE DAMAGE LEFT BEHIND. 비바카지노 Viva맥스카지노S MEGAN MATTHEWS SPOKE WITH RESIDENTS AND PROSPECT WHO CAME HOME TODAY TO THE DEVASTATION. DOZENS OF NEIGHBORS ON BEECHLAND BEACH ROAD HAVE EXPERIENCED EXTREME FLOODING OVER THE PAST WEEK. MANY COMING HOME TO INCHES OF MUD INSIDE THEIR HOMES AND AS YOU CAN SEE, OUTSIDE OF THEIR HOMES AS WELL. AND IF YOU TAKE A LOOK DOWN THE ROAD, MANY OF THE RESIDENTS ARE STILL UNABLE TO GET TO THEIR HOMES DUE TO THE FLOOD WATERS STILL PRESENT FOR MORE THAN A WEEK. LAUREN AND SCOTT GOWDY HAVE BEEN DISPLACED FROM THEIR HOME, ARRIVING HOME ON SATURDAY TO ASSESS THE DAMAGE. THIS WAS OUR LAUNDRY ROOM. WE GOT MOST OF THE CONTENTS OUT, SO THAT맥스카지노S A GOOD THING, BUT IT IT UPROOTED MY HOT WATER HEATER AND TORE IT FROM THE WALL. THE COUPLE MOVED TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD FIVE YEARS AGO, SAYING THEY KNEW THERE WAS A POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING, BUT NEVER EXPECTED THE WATER TO RISE AS HIGH AS IT DID. UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY JUST WALK THROUGH AND EXPERIENCE IT, YOU KNOW, HAVE A HARD TIME TO EVEN GET IN THE DOORS BECAUSE THEY맥스카지노RE SWOLLEN SHUT AND STUFF. SO WE HAD TO BREAK SOME WINDOWS TO GET IN. BUT AS YOU GO THROUGH THE HOUSE ON THE BOTTOM FLOOR, IT맥스카지노S JUST, YOU KNOW, IT맥스카지노S DEVASTATION RIGHT NEXT DOOR. SMITH, HAYNIE AND HIS WIFE, ANNE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME EFFECTS, SAYING ALTHOUGH THEY ARE WORRIED FOR THEIR HOME, IT맥스카지노S THE ROADS THAT CONCERN THEM. OBVIOUSLY, IT맥스카지노S A BIG JOB, SOMEWHAT OVERWHELMING, BUT WE WILL SOMEHOW, GOD WILLING, GET THROUGH IT, RIGHT? BEECHLAND BEACH ROAD IS A PRIVATE ROAD, MEANING RESIDENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR CLEANING THE ROAD IN FRONT OF THEIR HOMES. BUT WITH INCHES OF MUD LINING THE ROAD, IT맥스카지노S DIFFICULT FOR THE COMMUNITY TO EVEN DRIVE ON. THIS WAS A MUCH MORE SEVERE FLOOD. THE ONE THING THAT THIS THIS COMMUNITY HAS IS, YOU KNOW, A COMMUNITY SPIRIT. WE ALL WORK TOGETHER AND EVERYBODY맥스카지노S GOING TO WORK, AND WE맥스카지노LL GET THIS PLACE CLEANED UP. AND THEY DID, WITH ONE NEIGHBOR EVEN PLOWING A MAJORITY OF THE ROAD AS BEST HE COULD IN HOPES TO GET THE COMMUNITY BACK TO THE STATE IT ONCE WAS. IT WILL STILL BE A WEEK OR TEN DAYS BEFORE I THINK IT맥스카지노LL BE. LIVABLE. BUT LIKE I SAID, IF YOU LIVE IN HEAVEN, YOU GOT TO EXPECT A LITTLE HELL. MEGAN MATTHEWS, 비바카지노 Viva NEWS. THANK YOU MEGAN AND THE DEPARTMENT FOR PUBLIC HEALTH WANTS TO REMIND THOSE CLEANING UP DAMAGE IN THE UPCOMING DAYS TO WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR. DRY ITEMS QUICKLY TO PREVENT MOLD. NOT TO USE POWER TOO

After enduring more than a week of flooding, many Kentucky residents are now turning their attention to cleaning up the destruction left behind. Among those affected are Lauren and Scott Gootee, who returned to their home on Saturday to assess the extent of the damage.The Gootees, who have lived in their northeastern Jefferson County neighborhood for five years, knew flooding was a possibility but were unprepared for the extent of the damage. "Until you actually just walk through and experience it, you know, . We had a hard time even getting in the doors because they맥스카지노re swollen shut. As you go through the house on the bottom floor, it맥스카지노s just devastation," Scott said. Next door, Smith and Anne Haynie are dealing with similar challenges. While their home has sustained serious water damage, Smith voiced additional concerns about Beechland Beach Road, the privately maintained road in their community now buried under inches of mud."It맥스카지노s a big job, somewhat overwhelming, but we will somehow, God-willing, get through," Haynie said.Neighbors have joined forces, with one even plowing a significant portion of the road to restore accessibility."The one thing this community has is, you know, a community spirit. We all work together, and everybody맥스카지노s going to work, and we맥스카지노ll get this place cleaned out," Haynie said.Although many neighbors are able to access their homes, the community is still unlivable. "It맥스카지노ll still be a week or ten days before I think it맥스카지노ll be livable, you know? But, like I said, if you live in heaven, you맥스카지노ve got to expect a little hell," said Haynie. The Department for Public Health wants to remind those cleaning up flood damage to take precautions.
