The flood in Kentucky, USA, has killed 25 people. How much damage has this flood caused?
According to the report of relevant news departments on July 3th, 222, the extreme rainstorm weather in Kentucky of the United States for several days in a row has also caused a huge flood disaster in the eastern region. On the same day, the governor of Kentucky also confirmed this, and said that the flood had killed 25 local people, including 4 children. The losses caused by this flood disaster are still relatively large. The water level has risen very quickly, and even some roofs have been flooded. Due to the impact of heavy rain, about 16, households and businesses in the state have been cut off.
The governor of the state said that Kenkita state has entered a state of emergency, and the relevant rescue departments have come to the worst-hit areas. Three parks have been opened in the area to accommodate those affected by the disaster, and the governor said that the post-disaster reconstruction may take many years. Not only Kentucky, but also some areas in two neighboring States have also suffered from floods, and the following six counties have also entered a state of emergency.
When the flood disaster occurred, many local residents were very scared, and suddenly they quickly evacuated without warning and preparation, so all their property was submerged in the flood. A local resident who was affected by the disaster said that all his life savings had been invested in his house, and now he has nothing after the flood. The resident used to work in a coal mine, but now he has retired and lives with his nephew. The flood that day happened at about 2:3~3: pm, and I was asleep, but the flood soon approached and poured into the house.
Therefore, my uncle and nephew were only able to evacuate quickly. After the evacuation, they went to a local park to avoid the disaster, and said that they were very confused about the future. As of July 3th, 222, the local flood warning has not been lifted, and in some places, because of the severe disaster, even rescuers can't get in, so many people are still in a state of missing, and the real death toll is still increasing.
