92* Today. Sunny. Summer is kicking off. We haven’t had enough rain IMO, but Nature gets its way. I have a feeling this will be a hot summer in the south central US. Clean the pool Daddio, surf’s up!

That makes me wonder what all of these insurance companies are going to do with such an active Spring. Raise premiums even higher? Out here in Arizona, car insurance is almost 30% higher than I was paying back in Chicago. I just looked at the past radar and that was a wild looking storm that hit your area. My goodness... https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/current/mcview.phtml?prod=comprad&java=script&mode=realtime&frames=45&interval=15&year=2024&month=5&day=23&hour=19&minute=30
