The Weather Girls is an American girl group whose founding members were Martha Wash and Izora Armstead(Izora Rhodes Armstead). Izora's two daughters Dynell Rhodes and Ingrid Arthur have continued the duo.
They are best known for their 1982 hit "It's Raining Men". Although the group is considered a one hit wonder by the mainstream, they were previously known as Two Tons O' Fun, under which name they recorded the number 2 American Billboard Disco chart hit "Earth Can Be Just Like Heaven" (1980), the number 29 American R&B chart hit "Just Us" (1980) and their Hi-NRG hit song "I Got The Feeling" (1981). They also backed Sylvester.
In addition, Wash recorded various other hit singles under her own name and as a (sometimes uncredited) vocalist for such artists as Black Box and C+C Music Factory.
The Weather Girls continued, after the split with Wash in the mid-80s, with original member Izora and her daughter Dynell Rhodes. Following Izora's death in 2004, Dynell continues to record under the Weather Girls moniker with her sister Ingrid Arthur.
For more than 25 years and with varying line-ups over the years, the spirited ladies have performed on stage and entertained their fans with their powerful voices, good spirit and positive vibes. On their latest release, The Woman I Am (CdA Recordings), the girls send a message of hope and positivity emphasizing a look to the future feeling positive about yourself and your environment. Past hits such as "It’s Raining Men“ and "Can U Feel It" will surely be joined by new classics such as "Wild Thing", "Love Will Lift You Up", "Human Love", “The Woman I Am” and the fun remake of “Just Us”. The release is a mix of dance, soul, gospel and some jamming re-mixes. Visit their www.myspace.com/theweathergirls, their official page.

The lyrics to The Weather Girls' song "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair" tells the story of a woman who has had enough of her man and is determined to wash him out of her life. The repetitive nature of the lyrics emphasises the determination of the woman to get rid of her man. Throughout the song, the woman repeats "I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair" with an increasing level of firmness and conviction. She then proceeds to wave him out of her arms, cancelling him, and eventually washing him out and sending him on his way.
The song presents a woman who is taking back control of her life after being let down by her man. The chorus encourages women who are in a similar situation to be strong, to not waste time, and to make a change. By emphasising the act of physically washing away the man, the lyrics suggest a sense of catharsis and empowerment. The song is ultimately a message of independence and self-determination, urging women to take charge of their lives and move on from toxic relationships.
