The Christian County Health Department is offering two other days to get the vaccine.

The winter storm watch previously issued by the National Weather Service was upgraded Tuesday to an ice storm warning.

Overnight lows will be below or near freezing every night through the weekend.

Some afternoon storms could be severe and produce large hail and damaging winds.

The watch is set to expire at 2 a.m. Sunday.

Damaging winds are possible, and a few significant tornadoes cannot be ruled out, according to the National Weather Service.

The National Weather Service recommends having both a weather radio and a cell phone with emergency alerts.

Because the soil is saturated, any amount of rain over half an inch could result in the closing of barrier roads.

Officials have reported five tornadoes touched down in Christian County, and there were two in Trigg County.

Both tornadoes were rated EF-1, the National Weather Service determined after surveying the area.

Up to 2 inches of snow is expected overnight with winds gusting up to 30 mph.
