My Experience with Hurrican Irene

  This is my experience of Hurricane Irene. I had to take out the trash on Friday and when I did there were a lot of clouds outside. They were moving very fast and had a little bit of thunder to them. There was also a wind coming in but it was not too hard. Also the rain had not started yet. I then went back inside my house and a couple hours later it rained for about ten minutes and the power went out for 7 seconds. The next day I was told the clouds were part of Irene and I thought to myself, “That was a small storm for a hurricane.”
