Weathered cleanup

Deanna Thompson was at her home on F.M. 2313 in Kempner on Memorial Day, and admitted she at first discounted the tornado warning coming across her phone that afternoon. In her 16 years of living on the property nestled

along the Lampasas River, severe weather like the EF-1 tornado that passed through the pecan and oak trees dotting the Thompsons’ acreage hadn’t occurred quite like it did last Monday.
