Worthington hurricane guide¶
Worthington is on the south bank of the Ohio River in eastern Greenup County, Kentucky. Inland, so heavy rain, river and creek flooding, and wind from a tropical storm or its remains are the concerns. The city publishes stormwater information about keeping pollution out of storm drains, and its public works office reports illegal discharges.
