We’re in the peak of severe weather season and numbers are adding up for this year — and the month of April — will be one for the record books.
The National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center indicates that we saw 373 tornadoes this April, with the majority seen in the last week of the month.
USDA Meteorologist, Brad Rippey, shares more on how there is only one more April in history that compares.
Farmers and ranchers were hit hard in Tennessee this week and of course our thoughts and prayers go out to those impacted.
The Tennessee Livestock Producers is offering help for those impacted. They shared on Facebook that Columbia Livestock has pens available with hay and water, and they will meet you there to help.
