According to the Arizona Weatherman, the Arizona Monsoon Season officially started on 15 Jun 2024. How are you enjoying the plethora of thunderstorms and rain showers? What and where are they, you say? And you would be correct; the convective activity has been mostly absent so far. But to be fair, the monsoon start date does not mean the pattern has actually been set up, but it will be coming soon. That is what the models indicate: an on-time typical climatological start date for the season to begin. The monsoon pattern is looking to start setting up around 21 Jun 2024 this year for Arizona.

Virginia fans of The Young and the Restless have asked where Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) has been. She has not been seen or mentioned in Genoa City for quite a while. There is nothing online about Sarpy's status, and Y&R spoilers for next week do not mention the character, so fans wonder if she has been let go.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now.

We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.
