Tropical weather…in a Kansas August?

Gray, misty skies…
Temperatures hovering in the low 80s…
Humid, hardly moving air…..

Yep, sounds like Kansas in August.

Just kidding. Actually, it sounds more like the tropics, which explains why a friend told me recently that the weather the past few weeks in the Wichita area reminded them of what it was like during a vacation to the tropics.

I’m sure there are plenty of folks who are grumbling about all the rain over the past few days – ball players with wrecked game schedules at the NBC tournament come to mind – but remember this: Kansas could be baking in day after day of triple-digit heat instead.

Which would you rather have?
