The gods have been smiting merry festival-goers across the globe this summer; first Glastonbury and now Bonnaroo and the CMA Music Festival. According to NewsChannel 5, the National Weather Service has decreed a severe thunderstorm watch for Coffee County (amongst other Tennessee counties) which may affect the Bonnaroo festivities starting this Thursday.
