should probably party every day, yeah,” replied Simmons, continuing the lyrics before telling Krueger that he should have a career “in showbiz.”
“You’ve got it,” Simmons said, praising the weatherman. “Lots of it.”

But when Krueger tried concluding the segment, Simmons seemed downcast. “Are you kicking me out?” he asked.
The meteorologist explained that he was being told “to wrap” it up via his tiny earpiece, and then Simmons, interpreting it as “to rap,” started to freestyle. “You go to 7-Eleven, go to heaven…”
Simmons has become a fixture of sorts on local L.A. news. He helped KTLA 5 deliver the weather forecast last year, wearing his sunglasses then, too, and telling viewers to “kiss somebody” before they left home that morning. “The mailman, your beautiful wife — kiss the dog, kiss life.”
Meanwhile, Krueger has become a fixture on social media, having gone viral several times for seamlessly incorporating lyrics from Kendrick Lamar and other artists into his weather reports.
