Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said that the death toll had risen by one since Saturday from last week's storms.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, center, answers question from residents of Knott County Ky., that have been displaced by floodwaters at the Knott County Sportsplex in Leburn, Ky., Sunday, July 31, 2022. As residents in Appalachia tried to slowly piece their lives back together, flash flood warnings were issued for at least eight eastern Kentucky counties. The National Weather Service said radar indicated up to 4 inches of rain fell Sunday in some areas, with more rain possible.
At a news conference in Knott County, Beshear praised the fast arrival of FEMA trailers but noted the numerous challenges. The governor also talked about the selflessness he’s seen among Kentucky residents suffering from the floods.“Many people that have lost everything but they’re not even getting goods for themselves, they’re getting them for other people in their neighborhoods, making sure that their neighbors are OK,” Beshear said.
On an overcast morning in downtown Hindman, about 200 miles southeast of Louisville, a crew cleared debris piled along storefronts. Nearby, a vehicle was perched upside down in Troublesome Creek, now back within its debris-littered banks.“We’re going to be here unless there’s a deluge,” said Tom Jackson, who is among the workers.
