Did Atlanta Become an Ocean Overnight?
So, you're wondering if Atlanta turned into Atlantis last night? Let's dive into this watery mystery.
How Much Did It Rain In Atlanta Last Night |
The Great Atlanta Deluge of [Yesterday's Date]
I'm not sure if Noah built an ark and missed the memo about Georgia, but Atlanta seemed to have its own mini-flood last night. The rain came down harder than a Kardashian's stepdad trying to get famous. I'm talking torrential, monsoon-level precipitation. It was like Mother Nature decided to have a water balloon fight and Atlanta was the target.
QuickTip: Ask yourself what the author is trying to say.
Did you wake up looking like a drowned rat? Or maybe your car turned into a submarine? If so, you're not alone. Social media was flooded (pun intended) with pictures of cars navigating rivers, people kayaking down the streets, and fish doing laps in swimming pools.
QuickTip: Reading carefully once is better than rushing twice.
How much did it actually rain? Well, let's just say the rain gauges were probably too busy swimming to give an accurate reading. But from the looks of it, Atlanta transformed into a tropical island for a few hours.
Reminder: Take a short break if the post feels long.
Dealing with the Aftermath
Now that the waters have (hopefully) receded, it's time to deal with the aftermath. If your basement looks like a marine aquarium, you might want to invest in a snorkel. And if your car is still floating, consider calling Noah for a tow.
QuickTip: Revisit posts more than once.
On a serious note, be careful driving in flooded areas. It's easy to underestimate the depth of the water, and you could get stuck or worse. Also, watch out for downed power lines and other hazards. Safety first, people!
How to Survive the Next Atlanta Deluge
- How to build a DIY ark: Just kidding. But seriously, it might be a good idea to invest in a waterproof phone case.
- How to turn your car into a boat: Again, just kidding. But knowing how to swim might come in handy.
- How to catch fish in your backyard: Only if you really, really like fish.
- How to find a good waterproof mascara: Because you never know when the next downpour will hit.
- How to make friends with a duck: Just in case you need a ride during the next flood.
So there you have it, the great Atlanta deluge. Let's hope the weather gods are a little kinder to us next time. Until then, stay dry!
