a friend once told me: "if you don't like Midwest weather, just wait 20 minutes"

got my first real taste of Midwest weather today:

12:28pm

partly cloudy, 80degreesF, 20% chance of precipitation, 60% humidity, winds from the NW at 16mph (shorts + flips + natural hair)

9:03pm

thunder/lightning/HAIL, 64degreesF, 80% chance of precipitation, 84% humidity, winds from the SSW at 8mph

do you see that up there?!?!  that's HAY-UHL.
