The death toll from the weekend storms that devastated Kentucky has risen to 14 — and the impacted communities are preparing for more winter weather.
Gov. Andy Beshear said Tuesday that two more people, a man and woman who appear to have been homeless, died from hypothermia. Twelve others have died as a result of flooding in the state, including a mother and her 7-year-old child, whose car was swept away in Hart County, according to WBKO-TV.
The state is applying for individual assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which many residents may qualify for, Beshear said Monday.
Beshear said his biggest concern with the incoming winter storm is people getting stranded on roads and in freezing temperatures. He advised residents to stay safe and updated
The state is expected to receive between two and six inches of snow on Tuesday night and Wednesday evening
