April is the time of year for severe weather to occur and thunderstorms and severe weather are in the forecast for Monday night into Tuesday morning. Bladen County Emergency Management Director Bradley Kinlaw said severe weather is a slight possibility with the timing somewhere between 6:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Monday night.

Kinlaw said residents are encouraged to be aware of changing weather conditions and to ensure they are in a location where they can receive severe weather watches and warnings.  He added this is the time of year when tornadoes are most likely to occur.  Kinlaw said should any watches or warnings be issued, people need to be prepared to take action to protect themselves and their property.

“It is just that time of year when we’ve got to be mindful of this type of weather,” said Kinlaw.
