Just less than 19,500 Kentucky residents reported being without power as of 6:40 a.m. Monday morning. Here's what to know.

Use battery-powered lights such as flashlights instead of candles, which pose a fire hazard. Leave one light plugged in with the switch on so that you can tell when the power is restored. Stay away from power lines that have fallen or are sagging. Consider all lines energized, as well as trees, limbs or anything in contact with lines.

The tracker showed 324 in Fayette County without power. In Central Kentucky, Anderson, Spencer and Bullitt counties still had around 1,000 without power early Tuesday afternoon.
