The remnants of Hurricane Harvey brought heavy rainfall and flooding to parts of the Pennyrile region of western Kentucky. The hurricane made landfall near Corpus Christi, Texas on August 28th. The storm produced catastrophic flooding over southeast Texas, where it became nearly stationary. The center of Harvey eventually moved northeast through the Tennessee Valley as a tropical depression. Several bands of heavy rain moved north from Tennessee through Todd and Muhlenberg Counties in Kentucky.
