A
So
kyle,
I
know
that
you
really
track
closely
systems
as
they're
moving
across
the
united
states.
Are
there
any
systems
that
you're
aware
of
out
west
that
are
rolling
our
way.
A
40
degree
temperatures
next
week,
yeah
that
makes
perfect
sense.
Let's
shift
gears
a
little
bit
and
talk
about
the
coronavirus.
B
So
today,
but
we
have
been
seeing
less
than
2000
cases
a
deaths
day
still
under
a
hundred
nationwide
cases.
There
are
now
under
90
000
and
over
in
western
1
000
deaths
a
day
and
globally
cases
now
over
110
million
cases
and
2.6
million
dead,
and
then
the
united
states
has
confirmed
seven
new
chronovirus
variance
springs,
a
total
of
10
variants
of
chronovirus
in
the
united
states
alone.
A
And
vaccine
you
know
we're
seeing
the
numbers
of
those
who
are
80
plus
that
are
vaccinated
in
athens
county
you
know
continues
to
go
up.
I
get
often
I
get
emails
or
texts
from
individuals
who
are
scheduled
to
get
their
vaccines
soon.
So
that's
always
wonderful
for
me
to
hear-
and
I
know
that
the
athens
athens
city
county
health
department
is
doing
a
great
job,
making
sure
that
that
people
are
getting
vaccinated
as
well
as
a
lot
of
our
pharmacies.
A
The
most
recent
is
that
fruit
pharmacy
has
been
added
to
the
list
of
places
that
people
can
call
and
see
if
there's
availability
to
get
vaccinated
there.
So
it's
just
it's
good
news.
In
my
mind,
we
go
a
long
ways
to
go
long
ways
to
go
sports
kyle.
What's
going
on
in
the
world
of
ou's
athletics,.
A
Kyle,
you
are
just
the
person
in
the
know,
so
I
so
appreciate
you
always
being
on
this
show
kyle.
You
know,
stay
safe,
my
friend
and
same
to
your
family.
You
know,
I
know
that
you
do
this.
It's
important
that
everybody
mask
up
when
you're
out
in
public
or
going
into
a
business
open
to
the
public
and
maintaining
proper
social
distancing.
So
kyle
keep
up
the
good
work
and
we'll
see
you
again
next
week
see
you
next
week.
A
Okay,
a
number
of
things
we
are
currently
under
a
level
one
snow
emergency,
as
per
the
athens
county,
sheriff's
website.
We
were
at
level
two
throughout
the
evening
and
into
the
early
morning,
but
we
are
level
one.
So
please
drive
with
caution.
I
know
this.
A
The
athens
street
cruise
snow
and
ice
removal
control
have
been
out
were
out
running
a
lot
during
the
ice
storm
and
they
continued
to
hit
spots
where
they
knew
that
there
was
an
accumulation
of
ice
and
they
will
continue
to
do
that
as
this
next
snowfall
rolls
in
as
kyle
indicated,
you
know
tonight
and
into
tomorrow.
So
please,
just
if
you
have
to
drive
drive
with
a
high
level
of
caution,
be
observant
of
the
roads
and
the
road
conditions.
A
The
athens
is
worth
mentioning
as
well.
The
athens
city,
county
health
department's,
coveted
19
vaccine
vaccination
clinic
winter
plan
is
that
if
there
is
a
level
two
snow
emergency,
the
clinic
will
be
held
as
scheduled.
If
it's
a
level
three,
it
will
not,
the
clinic
will
be
canceled
and
they
will
reschedule.
A
There
is
a
loan,
or
rather
a
low
income
federal
assistance
program
for
renters
that
is
going
on
right
now.
A
rent
assistance
program,
the
ohio
department
or
ohio
development
services
agency
is
now
distributing
about
100
million
dollars
in
federal
funding
for
low-income
ohioans
to
help
with
their
rent,
rent
water,
sewer,
waste,
water,
electric
gas,
oil
and
or
trash
removal
bills.
A
A
So
please
take
advantage
that
eligibility
for
ohio
households
must
be
at
or
below
80
percent
of
the
counties
area's
median
income
again
that
varies
from
county
to
county
and
by
salaries
of
the
household,
have
experienced
financial
difficulties
due
to
the
coronavirus,
demonstrate
a
risk
of
experiencing
homelessness
or
housing
instability.
A
A
So
you
know,
I
encourage
you
to
go
to
whether
you
use
google
play
or
you
use
the
apple
app
store,
go
on
type
in
athens,
ohio
city
source
and
the
app
will
pop
right
up
right
there
in
front
of
you
download
it
use
it
because
it's
a
it's
a
great
great
resource,
a
great
app
to
have
handy
on
your
phone
to
again
better
inform
the
city
in
terms
of
problems
that
you
are
experiencing,
so
that
we
can
get
corrective
action
and
address
those
problems
for
the
love
of
athens
photo
contest.
A
This
is
a
photo
contest
in
an
exhibition
celebrating
the
people
places
people
and
places
of
athens
county.
So,
if
you're
interested
in
that,
that
show
will
take
place
tuesdays
through
fridays
from
2
to
6
p.m.
A
At
arts
west

you
to
call
to
see
if
they
are
at
capacity
with
people
coming

A
A
That's
our
normal
time
we
haven't
had
a
meeting
in
a
while,
but
you
can
certainly
tune
in
and
check
out
things
happening
within
the
planning
commission
and
then,
as
usual
city
council
will
be
meeting
february,
22nd
at
7
00
pm,
and
we
encourage
people
to
attend
and
see
what's
going
on
or
to
give
comment,
when
president
nicely
opens
things
up
for
community
comment
on
things
not
on
the
agenda,
that's
pretty
much
all
I
have
for
today
or
for
this
week,
so
please
remain
safe.
A
Both
weather-wise
and
coveted
19
wise
do
the
right
thing
and
wear
a
mask
when
you're
out
and
about
and
be
careful.
If
you
have
to
drive
as
long
as
we're
not
under
a
level
three
emergency,
you
still
can
be
on
the
roadways,
but
we
ask
people
to
exercise
extreme
caution
and
only
be
on
the
roadways
if
it's
absolutely
necessary.
