After strong storms rolled through Middle Tennesee on Sunday and Monday, Miranda Lambert revealed that her farm, which lies outside of Nashville, sustained extensive damage from high winds.
“The storms that came through TN this weekend took a toll on our farm,” the superstar shared in an Instagram post on Tuesday (May 5). “So very thankful no one was hurt, including animals and structures. A ton of huge old trees just uprooted and snapped in half. I know, like us, a lot of folks in Nashville and surrounding areas don’t have power.”
Meteorologists reported that Sunday’s thunderstorms blasted the area with up to 71-mph winds, leaving up to 100,000 people without power. Lambert said the unpredictable weather reminds her of one thing: “I think that’s the lesson, for me anyway. God keeps reminding us who’s in charge.”
The “Bluebird” singer’s post featured several photos of downed trees and one of her husband, Brendan McLoughlin, clearing out the remnants with a chainsaw.
The storms came through just hours after Lambert and McLoughlin introduced fans to their new “family member,” a 2020 Airstream Globetrotter. The couple plans to travel the country together in their new Airstream, which they named “The Sherriff.”
