1:18 So we ve experienced an extremely unusual dynamic for severe weather here in the state, emergency management director Michael Dossett began his briefing Monday morning.
That dynamic: three winter storm events back-to-back. The second began Sunday, and Dossett says it will run through the early morning hours of Tuesday, bringing up to half an inch of ice and potentially 6-8 inches of snow in some regions. This storm will impact most of our counties and should be considered a very dangerous system, the emergency management head explained. Again, you can expect sleet, freezing rain, ice, very heavy snowfall, with accumulation rates of 1-2 inches per hour. That s far in excess of what we can manage on interstates, so it s going to take everyone s cooperation.

Governor Andy Beshear announced Tuesday that the federal COVID-19 team will increase Kentucky’s vaccine supply by an additional 5%. This is in addition to the 16-17% increase already promised by the Biden administration.
“That means since this administration took over the provision of vaccines, they have increased our allocation by 21-22% and that full increase starts this week,” Beshear said. “Again our challenges are supply, supply, and supply. We could provide a quarter-million of these vaccinations a week. We’ve been getting about 64-thousand. This will obviously increase that a little bit.”
The state is currently vaccinating those who are in Phase 1A and 1B but vaccination sites are allowed to move into 1C if they have any left-over supply that would expire if it isn’t used.

Governor Andy Beshear has confirmed that two cases of the United Kingdom COVID-19 variant have been confirmed in the Commonwealth. Beshear said there would be more information from State Public Health Commissioner Dr. Steven Stack during his daily press briefing on Wednesday. Health officials across the globe have confirmed that the new strain is a more aggressive variant of the virus.
Beshear did have some good news to report. More vaccines are coming to the Commonwealth. President Biden’s COVID-19 team held a call with state Governors on Tuesday and vowed to boost the vaccine supply to each state by 16%. States will also be told the minimum supply they could expect for the next three weeks.
