Girls and Weather is the debut album from the Devon-based band The Rumble Strips. It was released on September 10, 2007 by the Island Records sub-label Fallout Records.

AllMusic reviewer Katherine Fulton said that "happy melodies coupled with bittersweet lyrics are a running theme throughout the album", being quick to note this is a good thing because "it's a formula that works well for the Rumble Strips."{{cite web |url= {{AllMusic|class=album|id=r1111853|pure_url=yes}}|title= Girls and Weather review|accessdate=2008-07-23 |last=Fulton |first=Katherine|publisher=allmusic |date= }} She sums up the album by saying it "loses neither steam nor charm throughout; it's an album for adults who want an excuse to behave like kids again." NME reviewer Jamie Fullerton focuses in particular on the frontman, indicating that the "cheesy, into-the-sunset fantasy is just another indication of Waller's total detachment from the current grot-rock set, just as he's detached from the cretins who brand him a Dexy's photocopier."{{cite web |url= https://www.nme.com/reviews/the-rumble-strips/8952|title= The Rumble Strips album review|accessdate=2008-07-23 |last=Fullerton |first=Jamie|publisher=NME|date=2007-09-17}}
