Storms rolling through central Kentucky are knocking out power as they move south.
The Kentucky Utilities outage map is showing over 35-thousand customers currently without power, mostly in Fayette County.
In a tweet, Lexington Emergency Management officials said the outages may impact some traffic signals around town. Drivers should treat such intersections as four-way stops. Downed trees and power lines have also been reported.
There is a severe thunderstorm watch in effect for much of our listening area until 7PM.
