The weather forecast was for 7 days of rain.
I was dreading those 7 days.
The first couple of days we were only going to have a 50% chance of rain and the amount of rain was going to be less than an eighth of an inch. The three days after that were forecasted with a 100% chance of rain and the amount of rain would be 1-2 inches. Those three days of rain caused a lot of problems in the city and some minor problems in our home. Outside in the neighborhood, there were a lot of trees knocked down. The rain saturated the ground and the smallest amount of wind was toppling some pretty large trees. Power was out in the neighborhood for 18 hours while it was raining. Inside of my home, I had damage on the roof. There was a spot on the roof that was soft and it started leaking after the second day of rain. I was worried that the roof was going to fall into the house. The rain flooded into the garage and we had to turn off the HVAC unit. Our HVAC unit is low to the ground. The garage filled up with 6 in of water and the HVAC unit had to be shut off for safety reasons. It took a long time for everyone in the neighborhood to get over the problems that happened with that storm. It was easily one of the worst storms that I can remember occurring during the month of march. We don’t usually have that much rain.
