Federal money is on the way for counties trying to clean up from this year's storm damage, including the January ice storm and May flooding.

Kentucky is one of 15 states receiving part of more than 200 million dollars in federal stimulus money.

The Bluegrass State will get 27 million to reimburse the state to fix highways, bridges, or other roadway structures.

The ice storm in January knocked down trees and power lines and killed 36 people.
