Rain Brings Some Relief to Farmers

Storms across West Tennessee this evening brought some much needed rain to the area. Crops looked a little greener as they soaked up the rain. Up until this afternoon, Jackson reported less than two inches of rainfall for the month of May; nearly four inches under the normal. It has been a very dry year so far and Thursday’s rain only put a small dent in the drought. The Jackson area is still close to 10 inches of rain short for the year. As of 10:30 p.m., Thursday night, Jackson’s McKellar-Sipes Regional Airport had picked up 0.25 inches of rain.
