Rain started blowing in my windows and pounding my air conditioner. So of course I ran around the house and closed all the windows. Sheets of water fell slid down the glass as the pitter patter grew to a roar and the wind shook the storms in their frames. The rain began seeping through the cracks between metal and wood and as it started to pool jumped out at me with the same force as it was hitting the windows. Soon I was getting pelted with torrents of freezing cold rain. Branches fell on the roof in groups of three, and the storm called for me, "Everything all right in there?"
I jerked awake in a cold shower.
