Real monsoon
We’ve been getting some fairly decent storms this year, but tonight was a really good one. I was playing the piano, and out of the blue, I got a text message from Gil saying that a tree had fallen outside his apartment near our office. Out of curiosity, I turned on the news, and I heard things like “hurricane speed winds” and “horizontal rain.” Awesome.
What was a bit amusing was when the news blacked out for a minute, and they came back on all perplexed that their power went off, since that’s “not supposed to happen.” Then, I guess they noticed that they were broadcasting a random conversation between the camera guy and somebody else, and they gave us some “Grey’s Anatomy” instead.
And it looks like the rain is going again. I’ve been waiting for a storm like this since I got down to Phoenix.
Oh, and it’s hailing a bit too.
