Scripts may guide the newsroom, but on the farm, weather writes its own story. This week on Unscripted, Tyne Morgan and Clinton Griffiths set the script aside to talk candidly about winter weather extremes and what they mean for farmers and rural communities with Meteorologist and rancher Brian Bledsoe. The episode looks back at recent ice storms that left widespread damage across the South—knocking out power, shutting down travel, and creating real challenges for livestock, grain handling, and daily farm operations.

The discussion breaks down La Niña and El Niño patterns in plain terms, explaining how Arctic air, tropical moisture, and long-term climate signals influence temperature swings, moisture patterns, and seasonal planning. Looking ahead, the group explores early signs of dryness in key ag regions and what those signals could mean for planting decisions and input management. No hype—just grounded insight, real experience, and practical weather knowledge farmers can use as they plan for what’s next.
