From snow and ice to tornadoes and flooding, the Louisville area has been hit with a variety of severe weather just four months into the year. 

With several inches of rain and more severe weather in the forecast this week, it's important to take precautions. 

Beshear said the flooding and cold temperatures are now responsible for 23 deaths in Kentucky. 

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear declared a state of emergency across the commonwealth as more severe storms head into the region on Tuesday.

Residents in Milton were picking up the pieces Friday after an EF-2 tornado left behind a path of destruction on Thursday.

The first 65 trailers are expected to arrive Saturday.
