KSP: Prepare for potential winter weather By Sgt. Billy Gregory Frankfort, KY - Kentuckians could experience their first taste of winter weather as a band of snow is predicted to impact the Commonwealth late Sunday night. The Kentucky State Police (KSP) are asking motorists to be aware that weather conditions may change rapidly over the next 24 hours. "While we can never completely predict what the forecast will be, it is a great time for citizens to prepare for the winter driving season," says KSP Spokesman Sgt. Billy Gregory. Gregory says citizens need to rethink their driving behaviors this time of year, which include slowing down, leaving more space between cars and prepping their car with necessary supplies should they become stranded. KSP developed a list of items motorists should place in their vehicles before the weather sets in. This includes a winter weather kit with items such as a cell phone charger, blankets, first-aid kit, jumper cables, windshield scraper, collapsible shovel, and a flashlight with batteries.

January 30, 1979 Around Adair with Ed Waggener The article below first appeared in the January 30, 1979, issue of the Adair County News. Topics included the Pickledog Export Economy, what the new Commissioner of Commerce's ties to Adair County might mean, growth versus conservation, and whether a new recreational center might reduce juvenile delinquency in town. --Pen By Ed Waggener More pickle dog shortage Last week I cited the shortage of good wholesome pickle dog in other parts of the United States, as first reported by Pauline Rogers of Columbia, in Around Adalr in the Dally Statesman. . Mary Wilcoxson, of the First National Bank, tells me that I didn't write the half of it. "I just returned from Bremerton, Washington, to visit my Son, Pete," she says. "I took him two gallons of pickle dog, as be insists it is not available there." You'd think, she says, that her son would have shared the delicacy with the Washingtonians. But no. "He had company and they had never tasted pickle dog," she recounts, "and they asked him to let them taste it. He said, 'No, you won't like it.' But he finished one whole gallon in one week." Mrs. Wilcoxson says that the plight of other parts of the country is just as bad.

LCDHD COVID-19 Public Information Brief 11/28/2020 Two deaths Saturday, November 28, 2020 - a 66-year-old male from Adair who had been hospitalized; and, a 75-year-old male from Taylor who had been hospitalized. By Amy Tomlinson Lake Cumberland District Health Department Though we still have high numbers, this week was an improvement over last, at least in some aspects. Maybe this is a fluke due to fewer people seeking testing over the holidays. Nevertheless, we will take the good news and hope it continues into the next week. We have 78 fewer active cases compared to last week (1,023 vs 1,101). We added 961 new cases this week compared to 1,203 last week. On the negative side, our deaths this week were higher than last (11 compared to 8), as were our hospitalizations (65 this Saturday compared to 63 last Saturday). Remember, it is within our power to impact the spread of COVID-19, and it will take a community-wide committment to improve our situation. Please, let's all do our part in slowing the spread of COVID-19 by wearing our face coverings, avoiding crowds (especially in confined spaces), social distancing when around others, increasing our hand hygiene, increasing our general sanitation, and by avoiding the touching of our faces.
