23 people have died due to the storm in Kentucky and Missouri. According to the Associated Press (AP), 14 people from Kentucky and 9 people from Missouri have died due to the storm that has spread to the Midwest and the South since Friday afternoon, local time. Among the deaths in Missouri, 5 people are from the city of St. Louis.

The governor of Kentucky, Andy Beshear, has told the American media that 14 people have died and more than 10,000 families have been affected by the storm in Kentucky so far. "There is a possibility that the number of deaths due to the storm will increase," Governor Beshear said, "We are trying to prevent possible damage." The storm had a heavy impact on Laurel County in the southwest region of Kentucky and caused great loss of life. More than 5,000 homes in Missouri were damaged by the storm and power outages.

According to the local police, based on the radar signal, the storm started at 2:30 pm local time on Friday afternoon near Forest Park in the western part of Set Louis, Missouri. Meteorologist Philomon Geertson said the storms that hit at different times this year affected Kentucky and Missouri more. He mentioned that at least 24 people died in two months of storms and most of those dead were from Kentucky and Missouri. 

Cara Spencer, the mayor of St. Louis, Missouri, said that storms have hit three times this year. "The storm this time was really terrible," she said, "due to the storm, a curfew had to be imposed in St. Louis on Friday night." Mayor Spencer informed that more than 50 people were injured and there was no information about the condition of the injured.
