Linemen work to restore electricity to more than 200,000 Louisville residents, days after an ice storm hit the city January 30, 2009. More than 600,000 homes and businesses were still without power on Friday morning after snow and ice storms earlier this week left more than 1.5 million customers in the dark from Oklahoma to Pennsylvania, local utilities reported. The storms on Jan. 27-28 hit Kentucky the hardest, leaving more than half a million customers without power. [Xinhua/Reuters]
