California Storm
I made jokes to friends showing the rain and talking about how California was on lockdown emergency – but once I got an emergency warning not to travel I got worried. I was pretty far from home and decided to try to get home ASAP so I got in my car and started to drive back. I hit some pretty pools of water which might have gotten into my car, and the scariest part was I missed an exit I could have taken on the highway due to the visibility, and so I had to go through this one stretch where the lanes collect into two and they are surrounded by barriers with less than a foot of gap on either side. Normally it is already very precarious, but while driving a truck next to me hit a huge pool of water and it completely covered my windshield for about 3 seconds, where I couldn’t see anything at all out of it. I very nearly crashed into them, and that was a horribly eye-opening experience. At some point, I will get into an accident and I’m a bit worried about how I’ll handle it. I think it could make me spiral at best, and kill me at worst.
