“Fusion of a funk rhythm and jazz harmonies. On the Rolling Stone list of the greatest 100 songs, and pure San Francisco.

"There were no warnings for that flood," said Tiffany Clair, an Owsley County resident, in a Daily Yonder interview.

Nearly 14 percent of households in Letcher, Knott, Owsley and Perry counties and 28 percent of households in Breathitt, Clay, Floyd and Pike counties reported difficulty accessing internet, television, radio, and cell service for emergency communications during the floods.

The agency surveyed people from over 400 households in Breathitt, Clay, Floyd, Knott, Letcher, Owsley and Perry counties, as well as displaced residents living in three shelter sites.
