Natural Disaster

I read an article called, "Kentucky National Guard goes door-to-door to deliver aid". This article was about, obviously, a natural disaster that occurred and how people were affected by it. There was an ice storm in Kentucky causing 91 of the 120 counties to declare emergencies. The effects of this ice storm was that, hundreds of thousands of people from Kentucky are left without electricity and fresh water. It's supposed to get warmer there, which should help emergency management crews clean up the state, but it also means the "risk of wet roads and falling chunks of ice", CNN said. There were also 7 related deaths from the storm. 64 water systems are down, and 93 are having problems. Although all these problems have hit, people are working together to find shelter because they're houses are too cold. Most people will be able to go back to their houses in around 7 days hopefully.
