MORNING FROM A FRIGID DALLAS,
TEXAS, WHERE PEOPLE THERE
ARE WAKING UP IN SINGLE DIGITS
THIS MORNING . NOW THE FREEZING
COLD TEMPERATURE IN TEXAS,
THEY'VE CAUSED BLACKOUTS FORCING
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE TO GO WITHOUT
POWER WHEN THEY NEED IT
THE MOST. AND MAJOR CULPRITS OR
THESE WIND TURBINE TOWERS, THEY
ACTUALLY LOCKED UP IN
THE FREEZING TEMPERATURES AND A
SPIKE IN ENERGY DEMAND ACROSS
THE STATES. SOME RESIDENTS, THEY
LEFT THEIR HOMES TO BUILD FIRES
OUTSIDE, WHILE OTHERS THEY
JUMPED INSIDE THEIR OWN CARS
TO KEEP THE HEAT GOING AND KEEP
THEIR PHONES CHARGED.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE POWER COMPANY
SAYS THE BLACKOUTS WILL LIKELY
CONTINUE UNTIL LATER TODAY.
FURTHER SOUTH IN HOUSTON,
RESIDENTS THERE ARE FLOCKING
HOTEL ROOMS THAT STILL HAVE
POWER. GOT A NEWBORN JUST TRYING
TO FIND A HOTEL AND TRY TO FIND
A PLACE TO STAY.
>> WE CALLED SEVERAL HOTELS.
EVERYBODY WAS JUST BOOKED.
HALSTAD FATHER HAD TO DRIVE
ACROSS TOWN TO MAKE SURE HIS SIX
MONTH OLD CHILD HAD A WARM PLACE
TO STAY. RIGHT NOW THAT COUNRTY
THERE IS IN THE PROCESS
OF SETTING UP WARMING SHELTERS,
WHICH IS SOMETHING THEY WOULD
HAVE NEVER THOUGHT THEY NEEDED.
IN TEXAS, A DANGEROUS WINTER
STORM IS NOT JUST HITTING TEXAS.
>> LOUISIANA'S
>> LOUISIANA'S GOVERNOR CONFIRM THE FIRST
STORM RELATED DEATH AFTER A 50
YEAR OLD MAN SLIPPED ON THE ICE
AND HIT HIS HEAD. AND DESPITE
THE DIRE AND DANGEROUS SITUATION
TO THE SOUTH, OTHERS THEY'RE
FINDING THE FUN IN THIS WINTER
BLAST LIKE THESE FOLKS. CHECK IT
OUT. THEY'RE USING AN AIRBOAT
ON LAND AS A SNOW BOATS DRIVING
AROUND ON THE CITY STREETS.
>> THEY'RE PRETTY CRAZY.
AND ANOTHER PERSON SKIING DOWN
ONE OF THE MAIN ROADS, WHICH IS
A NORMALLY BUSY ROAD IN AUSTIN,
TEXAS, YET NOT A SINGLE CAR
THERE IN CITES. PRESIDENT BIDEN
HAS DECLARED A DISASTER IN THE
STATE OF TEXAS BECAUSE OF THIS
WINTER STORM AND ORDERED
FEDERAL ASSISTAN TO HELP
EVERYBODY THERE. BUT AGAIN, THIS
IS SOMETHING YOU GUYS
IT'S HISTORIC. IT'S SOMETHING IS
GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT
FOR DECADES.
FOR DECADES. >> KIND OF LIKE OUR HALLOWEEN
BLIZZARD HERE . YES. IT LIVES
ON 30 YEARS LATER, THAT'S
FOR SURE. THANKS, FELICIA. AS
WE TRY TO FIGHT TO END THIS
PANDEMIC, THE CORONVIRUS IS
FINDING NEW WAYS TO SURVIVE.
HERE'S THE THREE THINGS YOU NEED
TO KNOW THIS MORNING .
RESEARCHERS HAVE DISCOVERED
SEVEN NEW CORONAVIRUS VARIANTS
IN THE US WITH SIMILAR
MUTATIONS. THEY SAY THERE COULD
BE OTHER VARIANTS WE DON'T KNOW
ABOUT YET. HOWEVER, DON'T PANIC.
THERE'S NO EVIDENCE THESE
VARIANTS ARE MORE TRANSMISSIBLE
DESPITE MIXED DATA. A NEW U OF M
STUDY FINDS THE DRUG REMDISIVIR
TO BE EFFECTIVE IN THE FIGHT
AGAINST COVID . RESEARCHERS SAY
IT CAN HELP DECREASE THE AMOUNT
OF CELLS INFECTED BY THE VIRUS
IN JUST A FEW HOURS. THOUSANDS
OF STUDENTS IN THE METRO
WILL RETURN TO THE CLASSROOM
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MONTHS. IT
INCLUDES THIRD THROUGH FIVE
GRADERS AT ST. PAUL PUBLIC
SCHOOLS AS WELL AS ANOKA
HENNEPIN, SEVENTH THROUGH 12TH
GRADERS.
GRADERS.
GRADERS. >> A LITTLE MORE PROGRESS
ON MINNESOTAIS VACCINATION
EFFORTS. THE LATEST INFORMATION
FROM THE STATE SHOWS 12 % OF THE
POPULATION WITH AT LEAST A DOSE
OF A COVID-19 VACCINE THAT'S OUT
OF THE STATE'S FIVE POINT SIX
MILLION RESIDENTS. AND THAT'S
WHY THIS BLUE CHUNK OF THIS
PIECE OF THIS PIE WE'RE SHOWING
YOU STILL CONTINUES TO BE VERY
SIGNIFICANT. AND THAT MEANS
WE ARE SEEING MORE THAN SIX
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE
THOUSAND PEOPLE WITH AT LEAST
A SHOT OF A VACCINE. THOSE FULLY
VACCINATED ARE MORE THAN TWO
HUNDRED AND THIRTY EIGHT
THOUSAND AND A COUPLE OF THE
METRO COUNTIES HAVE SHOWN
PROGRESS TO AND YOU CAN SEE
RIGHT NOW CALVER RAMSEY
WASHINGTON JOINING HENNEPIN
COUNTY IN THE GREEN HERE , WHICH
MEANS THAT THEY HAVE MORE THAN
10 % OF PEOPLE VACCINATED.
>> THE REST ARE STILL IN THAT
FIVE TO 10 % RANGE NATIONALLY.
OR NEIGHBORS, WISCONSIN, NORTH
AND SOUTH DAKOTA'S. HEY, LOOK,
THEY'RE SITTING IN THE GREEN
AND THAT MEANS THAT IT'S MORE
THAN 12 % OF THE POPULATION
WITH A DOSE. IOWA, AS YOU CAN
SEE, IS BLUE ALONG
WITH MINNESOTA.
WITH MINNESOTA. >> AND THAT MEANS THAT IT'S
ANYWHERE BETWEEN 10 TO 12 %
OF THE POPULATION VACCINATED.
NOW HERE'S A LOOK AT THESE OTHER
TOP STORIES IN YOUR
MORNING RUSH. A SETBACK
FOR COVERING SECURITY COSTS
AND DEREK CHAUVIN'S TRIAL.
THE STATE HOUSE INDEPNDENTLY
STOP THE DEBATE OVER
GOVERNOR WALLACE THIRTY FIVE
MILLION PROPOSAL THAT WOULD
REIMBURSE AGENCIES FOR PROVIDING
HELP DURING THE TRIAL. THEY SAID
THEY DON'T HAVE THE VOTES
TO PASS IT IF LAWAMAKERS CAN'T
COME UP WITH A DIFFERENT PLAN,
THEY'LL BE FORCED TO GET BY
WITH EXISTING RESOURCES.
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN IS HEADING
TO MILWAUKEE TODAY. IT'S PART
OF A CNN TOWN HALL FORUM AT
THE PABST THEATER. IT WILL BE
HIS FIRST OFFICIAL VISIT
TO WISCONSIN SINCE BEING
ELECTED. IF YOU STILL NEED
HEALTH CARE . NOW'S YOUR CHANCE.
MNSURE IS OPENING A SPECIAL
ENROLLMENT PERIOD TODAY. IT

COVERED THROUGH THE REST OF THE
PANDEMIC. MINTUES ENROLLMENT

TO SEE A LITTLE BIT OF A
SLOWDOWN ON SIXTY ONE SOUTHBOUND
AS TRAVELING TOWARDS COTTAGE
GROVE, THERE WAS A REPORTED FIRE
ALONG THE STRETCH OF ROAD IN THE
SOUTHBOUND LANES. WE ARE SEEING
A LITTLE BIT OF A TRAFFIC JAM.
SO THAT'S ROUTE MAYBE GIVE
YOURSELF A FEW EXTRA MINUTES
TODAY.
TODAY.
TODAY. >>
TODAY. >> WE'LL MAJOR DISCOVERY
FOR WOMAN'S HEALTH RIGHT HERE IN
MINNESOTA. THE TESTS THAT MAY
SOON BE ABLE TO DETECT CANCER

OF THE COVID PANDEMIC. MENTAL
HEALTH EXPERTS TELL US HOW
TO PREPARE FOR A NEW NORMAL AS
IT INCHES CLOSER.
>> PLUS, MINNESOTA WANTS TO GIVE
YOU MONEY BACK FOR THINGS YOU
BOUGHT TO WORK FROM HOME.
