So a couple of days ago, a sign got put up on the Community Building doors warning of a "severe storm" coming our way. I got all excited because truth be told, the days of endless blue skies and sunshine was starting to get boring. Plus, I LOVE storms. I figured it MUST be a big deal if they took the time to write something up about it and post it in the central community area. It warned of very high winds and heavy rainfall up to 7 inches. The fact that I had no umbrella or waterproof footwear, let alone a jacket, couldn't dampen my anticipation for this great event.
Last night, as I lay in bed, unable to sleep (per usual unfortunately) I could hear little sprinkles of rain outside. Ooooh! The storm was rolling in!!!
I wake up this morning and it's full-on raining. Nice. The storm must be starting. Meg and I go up to the Community Building for breakfast. Everyone was in a tussel "Wow! This storm!" "Isn't this crazy!?!?!" "It's another El Nino!" The rain fell peacefully.
...wait
...what?
*THIS* is the storm? How disappointing. People are all bundled up like it's SNOWING or something and terrified to drive. Amusing to say the least.
Thank God I'm from Maine.
