Torrential rain left counties in the U.S. southeastern state of Kentucky flooded on Saturday (February 15), according to local news reports.
In eyewitness footage from the state's Madison County, flood waters can be seen gushing through a creek, over the spot where a bridge stood.
According to a post on the eyewitness' X account, the scene was the worst flooding they have seen, with the water levels in the creek allegedly rising one foot (30 cm) under two minutes.
Reuters was able to independently verify the location from hills seen in the background, positioning of nearby buildings and treeline that matched satellite imagery of the area. Date was verified by original file metadata from the source.
The National Weather Service has called the current weather "particularly dangerous" and that the flash flood event is expected to continue through Saturday night before the rain switches to light snow on Sunday (February 16).
