Today is Tuesday, August 16. Here are five things you need to know:

1. More rain: The rain continues today, mostly before 3 p.m. Expect some fog this morning and temperatures in the low 70s. Not very fantastic weather, but it looks like the rain will stop tomorrow!          

2. Greg Chalpin Live:   Come down to , 230 Mishawum Road, and watch the live entertainment provided by Woburnite Greg Chalpin. The fun .

3. Doggie education: Does your pup need to learn some new tricks? How about just learning how to walk without pulling you? Then head over to on Commerce Way for a one-hour loose-leash walking workshop at 4 p.m. today. There will also be a “Paws Off” workshop at 6 p.m. tonight to teach your grabby dog how to not jump on your friends.  

4. In case you missed it: Some clothes got a couple of Woburnites in trouble this weekend.   

5. Geronimo!: We have an extreme fun fact for you today. On this day in 1960, United States Air Force member Joseph William Kittinger II set the free-fall world record when he fell more than 16 miles (roughly 84,000 feet) before opening his parachute and landing in New Mexico. Kittinger has other extreme feathers in his cap; he also held the records for the fastest and longest skydive and was the first man to make a solo crossing of the Atlantic Ocean in a gas balloon.
