On today's show...

We check in with the National Weather Service in Aberdeen about Severe Weather Preparedness Week.

Kelly Serr, warning coordination meteorologist with NWS, helps us prepare to weather whatever pours out of the spring and summer seasons.

Dr. Tyler Ptacek, pain specialist at the Rapid City Medical Center, joins us to preview this week's episode of "On Call with the Prairie Doc®." He discusses chronic pain, including different types and treatment options.

We explore a disease, its impacts on South Dakotan families and the stigma surrounding it. Lisa Groon, senior health systems director with the Alzheimer's Association, breaks down her organization's 2024 Alzheimer's Disease Facts and Figures report.
