Editor’s Note: The first snowstorm with a name {Blair} in memory, has wreaked havoc all over Kentucky and our region is no exception. Heavy snow and ice in the past three days have slickened roadways and road crews have been extremely busy working around the clock.
Lawrence County EMS director Travis Hughes has been doing a great job and has been aided by the Kentucky National guard where a dozen of them have been deployed here.
