Yes, it's going to be hot and steamy later today, but a short-lived thunderstorm cooled things off in north Fort Worth and other parts of Tarrant County this morning.
Kids waiting at bus stops scrambled for cover between 8 and 8;30 a.m. as heavy rains drenched an area just north of Keller Central High School and a handful of car wrecks - have we already forgotten how to drive on slick roads? - were noticed on Beach Street and Western Center Boulevard.
A rainbow appeared briefly, a welcome change from the searing sun.
Sadly, high temperatures this afternoon are expected to reach 103 or 104, our 59th day of triple-digit heat this year.
