    The forecast had been predicting rain all day, but when the clouds finally rolled in, it was too late for her to prepare. She had just stepped out of her house when the first drops of rain started to fall. Knowing that she would soon be drenched, she quickly opened her umbrella and held it over her head.

    Little did she know that the rain was about to come down in torrents. Within minutes, the sky was a wall of water and the ground was quickly becoming a muddy mess. She was thankful that she had just had time to put up her umbrella before the rain came down.

    She stood there, sheltering beneath her umbrella, as the rain poured down. She watched as people ran for cover, trying to avoid getting soaked. Some had umbrellas, while others had to make do with whatever they had on hand, like newspapers or plastic bags.

    The rain continued for several hours, and by the time it finally stopped, the streets were flooded and the sky was still dark. She was relieved that she had been able to stay relatively dry under her umbrella.

    She just had time to put up her umbrella before the rain came down in torrents, and it was a good thing she did. Without her umbrella, she would have been soaked and miserable. It was a reminder of how important it is to be prepared for the weather, no matter how unpredictable it may be.
