That water falling out of the sky and onto your head is technically known as rain, which we do occasionally receive around these parts, even in July. 

But that is only one of the many interesting tales to be told on LoCO Weather this morning.

If we can remember back as far as last month, we will remember that lightning and dessicated forest material do not mix well. Smokejumpers: Suit up.
