About ten thousand people in Eastern Kentucky were without power after a storm blew through the Appalachian region of the bluegrass.
Pike County spokesman Brandon Roberts said today that the overnight storm has complicated efforts to offer cooling stations in the area where the forecast high for the day was 102 degrees.
Cooling stations were planned at several community centers but those facilities were without power.
The Kentucky Public Service Commission listed more than 63000 power outages from Friday afternoon through midday today.
