After days of deluges overfilled rivers to near-record levels across Kentucky, residents were anxious to return to their flooded homes and assess what was salvageable, even as stubbornly high waters kept some of them waiting even longer.
Floodwaters inundated a number of Kentucky cities and towns as powerful storms repeatedly struck parts of the South and Midwest, killing dozens of people in different states. In Kentucky, CBS News confirmed that at least six people are dead, while relentless rainfall caused the Ohio and Kentucky Rivers to swell and spill over around major metropolitan areas like Frankfort, the state capital, and Louisville, its largest city.
Images of the storm damage in Lockport, Kentucky, show cars and buildings either partially or, in some cases, completely submerged in water. Lockport is just over 50 miles east of Louisville.
