The county received several inches of snow, creating a beautiful backdrop with trees laden with snow drapping the roadways. The Harlan County Road Department cleared roads throughout the county, making traveling easier for those driving to work on Monday.

Approximately 1,200 homes in Harlan County were reported without electricity on Sunday as snow blanketed the area. Kentucky Utilities spokesman Cliff Feltham said less than 50 homes were still left without power on Monday.
