Storm Alert Center reporting and classes Daniel Wilson of Russell Springs has been reporting on Mother Nature's weather for a number of years and he also regularly holds classes to help people learn how to avoid problems, and stay safe in bad times, and be aware of seasonal changes. He shared on his Storm Alert Center Facebook page that this weekend's weather is all part of "blackberry winter". This is folklore in Kentucky and other states, but usually holds true that a cold period will come during these times. Redbud and dogwood are generally the first two mentioned from April until first part of May. Generally speaking, we should be frost free by the second week of May signaling a start of serious planting/gardening. 2025-05-05 00:00:50 | Comments | Printable version Birthdays and Anniversaries for May 5 Happy Anniversary, George and Joanne Payne (1990) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Chris Reliford | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Johnnie Ray Wilson | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Justin Roberts (1993) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Kaleb Butler | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Kathrine Curtsinger | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Mark Gilpin | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Matt Melson | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Sarah Dawn Goforth (2010) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Shawn Smith | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Linda Lane Rainwater, Taylor Co., KY (1945) | (Updates/Corrections) In Memory Birthday, Ronnie C.
