Summer storms in Joliet announce themselves early: a bruise of cloud out past the fields west of town, then the light going green, then the smell of rain crossing the Des Plaines valley about ten minutes ahead of the rain itself. Lightning Fast Lawn Care Service LLC has learned to read that window and use it — mow, trim, clear the clippings off the walk, and be loading up as the first fat drops hit the truck bed. Grass in a wet Illinois July grows like it is being paid to, and staying ahead of it takes a route run tight and a blade kept sharp. The reward is a yard that looks cut rather than merely shortened: even height, clean corners, nothing left drifting on the sidewalk. Lawn care at the speed the weather here actually allows.
