We got very little time to Tock, but I just had to Tick about this continued
rainy pattern we're seeing here in the Swooner State (hey, you can Soon, I'm
Swooning!). Well, let's call it "stormy" pattern, after last night's non-fun
with the usual suspect when it comes to summertime severe weather.

Yeah, you guessed it. Scott Baio. But also WIND.





Now one of the good things about summertime storms, other than the rain if you
need it, is if you gotta mow the lawn. Sooner (no, no Swooning here) or later,
you're gonna get an outflow boundary so you can mow in some nice cool, dry air.

Why yes, yes I did do that exact thing last night. But you definitely don't want
any 60 mph winds. At least we're gonna get a break, if you call no rain or clouds
and highs busting 100 a break, before the rains start back up again for the
weekend.

Here comes the heat.





Now if you see a temperature outlook like this one for next week, in the summer,
then that probably means even more rain. Because about the only way to get a
below-normal signal like that is with rain, and the clouds that come with it.
And trust me, I know below normal! I live it everyday...IQ, hair, patience, etc.



So enjoy?? your two days of summer before we return to another bout with
summer swooning this weekend, and apparently into next week as well.
