LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - A strong line of storms slammed Kentuckiana Sunday evening, causing damage in parts of southern Indiana and many parts of Kentucky.

In Louisville, the Old Louisville neighborhood seemed to have a lot of damage, with several streets closing, including 3rd Street and 7th Street.

At 7th and Lincoln, three power poles were snapped with several trees down.

While the storm dropped much-needed rain, it also caused power outages.

At the height of the storm, LG&E and KU said as many as 11,000 people were without power. Crews were working through the night to restore electricity.

During winter weather, TARC is a reliable transportation option but in the most severe conditions, routes may be detoured to avoid impassable streets and for safety reasons. You can monitor detour information from TARC’s web site homepage – www.ridetarc.org – or by visiting TARC’s Twitter and Facebook pages. 

Detours that are most likely in severe conditions are already posted at TARC’s website. TARC detour information will also be made available through media reports and by calling customer service at 585-1234.

TARC operators are trained to handle adverse weather conditions but will not travel roads that are unsafe. If a route has steep hills or other potential dangers, service may be detoured until the roads are cleared.
