Additional injuries from today's storm

Earlier I posted about the boy hit by the tree limb during this afternoon's storm. No word on his condition this evening other than it was a severe injury.

At Big Lots on Preston Hwy. the front windows were blown out during the storm and a couple of people were cut by the flying glass.

The PNC Tower..... formerly the National Bank Building downtown.....  a glass door was blown out.

2 UPS jets had minor damage. A 767 was hit by a container. That has already been fixed.
On another jet, a stairway blew into the fuselage a punctured it. The aircraft is expected to be back in service tomorrow.
A vehicle at the airport was blown onto it's side.
The top wind gust at the airport weather station was 64 mph.

There was a utility pole snapped at Bashford Manor. 

A large number of tree limbs down in the area.

Trees were down in a number of communities including.....
Shepherdsville
Bardstown
Lexington
Campbellsville

This is all in addition to the damage posted earlier.

As of 9:30 PM, just over 18,000 customers are still without power. Most of these were in Jefferson Co.
