We get used to it down here in the LA/MS Gulf Coast area... during the summer, a perpetual "highs in the mid to upper 90's, winds 5-10mph, 30% chance of thunderstorms" forecast is the norm.

Cloudy with some sunny periods. 70% chance of showers with the potential for isolated, severe thunderstorms to develop.....sigh...then its winter again!

Q. What do you call the first sunny day after two days of rain in Dayton, Ohio?

A. Monday

Seems like that anyway.
