This time of year, those monsters can pop up almost out of nowhere. It is the warmth and humidity.

Usually, they are in the spring and fall, but an occasional culprit can happen in the summer or winter.

We get more rapid info via the Internet than local TV. This is especially true on weekends when they tend to have fill-in employees. Most area TV stations do have storm-chasers who provide live streaming during these weather events.

Evenings like this are not especially fun. We just have to wait for it to pass.
