When Mother Nature gets pissed…

It’s been raining pretty heavily tonight.

I was sitting down, trying to write something lovingly romantic, juggling with words, and enjoying my evening, when something caught my attention.

A weird noise coming from outside. Something I had never heard before. My best guess was that someone was playing with a manhole cover. But who would be strong enough to lift a manhole cover, just to let it bang back into place? Why would anyone do that? In the pouring rain, this late at night??

I looked out the window, but couldn’t see anything. The noise, though, was getting stronger, and the banging more and more frequent.

I went downstairs, and brought my tablet along… Here’s what I saw, from our front porch! (Sorry, the image is not super clear, but zooming at night does not give the best videos…)

 

 

Ok, I know, nothing compared to what just happened in North Carolina… But still very impressive in Freezingland!

  1. Sometimes you have to quit acting on your best behavior and turn your back on Mother Nature.

    Oh, and just hide in the room where the light won’t find you. That helps too. πŸ˜‰

  2. That’s incredible considering how heavy they are. Maybe the person who parked their white car there should choose a different spot! Yikes! Is it flooded sewers that cause this? If so, I recommended packing up to higher ground!πŸ˜‚ Either that or you could film it for a music video that would go viral! ❀️

    1. It was quite scary! I kept my distance (hence the blurry video, since I had to zoom in) Luckily, it only lasted a couple of minutes… The same night, there was a type 3 tornado in a city just a couple of hours drive away from Montreal… All in all, we got lucky!
