The Weatherman's Dumb Stupid Come-Out Line was the third volume in the Over the Edge series, which compiles certain moments from Negativland's radio program of the same name, broadcast on KPFA. This album was edited together from several different broadcasts recorded between 1982 and 1984.
Originally released in 1990 by SST Records on cassette only, it was re-released on August 11, 1998, by Negativland's own label, Seeland Records, as a CD with a booklet (Dad, A Bag is Coming: The Weatherman's Dumb Stupid Dictionary, as told to Peter Diddle) and additional printed matter.

Using his "Crystal Microphone" and accompanied by Todd Rundgren's song "International Feel", the Weatherman identifies himself as the "Clorox Cowboy" and gives advice about cleaning and electronic repair, with particular focus on doorbell transformers.
