Coday, who had lost a cow to lightning in the past, empathized with the profound impact this kind of loss has on a farmer. He acknowledged that this was an event beyond Jared’s control, a cruel hand dealt by Mother Nature.

With a total of 32 cows lost, the financial loss equated to nearly $60,000.
