Just in! Infections of the bladder and/or kidneys (UTI) usually do not require multiple weeks of antibiotics. In fact, for most people with infections of their bladder, only a few days of antibiotics are needed.

Mother Nature may take back her promise of a storm-free Tuesday... but just marginally (aft/eve storms could pop up). On Weds, the heat is still coming, but the storm target has shifted off us a little. Some t-storms with wind/hail still expected, esp east of the Turnpike.

Over the next couple of days, it's going to seem like Mother Nature is feeling nicer. But don't believe it. She's back at it with both heat and storms on Weds... "Significant" severe could occur, but NWS thinks that part will land in Missouri. "Regular" severe possible here...

So much for Mother Nature staying away today. There is a slight possibility that out-west storms could spill over into our area overnight tonight. And Saturday's risk is also blossoming. Large hail and dmg wind could accompany any storms that develop from afternoon and on...

We appear to be dodging today's severe weather threat, which is currently parked over SE Kansas. Friday is also supposed to be a storm-free day, but we may be back in the game Saturday aft/eve (stay tuned!). The good news: temps will drop below "Broil" today!

We're in the "iffy" area for storms today -- better chances to our NE. If they do develop, watch out for gusty winds, a brief tornado, and potentially LARGE hail (2" or greater). But watch from indoors -- it's gonna be another HOT one today!

Using insect repellant is one of the easiest ways to help prevent mosquito and tick bites. A few seconds of your time can reduce the risk of illness spread by those little vampires. 🧛🩸
