Hurricane Helene said hello to the Bluegrass today, hammering the area with periods of high wind and heavy rains.
A flood watch remains in effect along and south of I-64 with rainfall totals through Saturday expected to range between 2 and 4 inches.
Peak wind gusts today reached the 50 to 60 plus mph range.
The unrelenting elements caused many large trees to topple, and left hundreds of thousands without electric across the Commonwealth.
Area firefighters and first responders worked furiously today to clear roads and respond to fire calls related to electrical issues or lightning.
You can find a large amount of pictures, submitted by viewers, of Helene damage on our WBON Facebook page.
