Rain, rain....

Well that was an exciting storm that just blew through. It's not often that you actually see the raim blowing sideways. I felt like I was standing on the deck of a ship, except the building wasn't moving, thank goodness. Of course, I should not have been standing at my silding glass door. The warnings always say stay away from windows, go to an inside sheltered area., but then you can't see the show. Actually when there are tornado warnings (this was only a severe thunderstorm warning) we are told to go to the lowest level which for me is the basement of theis building, 10 stories down. The problem I see with that plan is the possibility that the power could go out and I would be stuck in the basement unless I want to climb 10 flights of stairs. I really don't want even the possibility of doing that so I will continue to just stay put in my apartment where I can enjoy the show and the cool after breeze.
