High-water rescue crews have been pulling people from flooded homes and vehicles in Kentucky. The National Weather Service has issued flash flood warnings and watches for the area where Kentucky, Illinois and Missouri meet at the convergence of the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. The weather service says Wednesday’s rainfall could reach as much as 10 inches while rounds of thunderstorms blow through. Senior forecaster Keith Cooley says there are reports of people being rescued from high water in the Mayfield and Wingo areas. Mayfield was especially hard hit by storms that produced deadly tornadoes in December 2021.
