1. Today's weather forecast is calling for a high of 76 degrees and scattered but strong thunderstorms starting around 2 p.m. Storms are forecast to turn severe in the early evening as temps drop to 67 degrees. Watch out for hail once the severe storms move in.

2. Whether your teen is the next Bill Shakespeare, J.K. Rowling or simply a promising young writer, send him or her over to Wescott Library between 4-5 p.m. for the weekly . Writing exercises and constructive peer review are part of the deal.    

3. On this date in 1970, Dave and John Kunst and their mule, Willie-Make-It, set out from their Waseca home to walk around the earth.
