Several Northern Kentucky school districts have canceled classes Friday as Hurricane Helene's impact moves into the Tri-State, and at least one has announced an early dismissal.
The region is expected to see heavy downpours and high winds. A high wind warning has been issued for the entire Tri-State from noon Friday until 10 p.m., meaning travel for high-profile vehicles like school buses could be difficult.
