The deadliest December tornado outbreak on record

1 big thing - A podcast by Axios

The death toll continues to rise in Kentucky after devastating tornadoes touch down in the state Friday night. More than 80 people are confirmed dead and scores more injured. Some of the worst damage and the highest toll may be in southwestern Kentucky, but at least two dozen tornadoes were on the ground across six different states. Towns have been flattened and infrastructure devastated. Ten of thousands are without electricity and temperatures have been hovering around freezing. And, what we learned about living with COVID this year. Guests: Axios' Andrew Freedman and Sam Baker. Credits: Axios Today is produced in partnership with Pushkin Industries.
