FLOODING IN ARIZONA? *not clickbait

     Before I begin this post, I should explain something: I live in the middle of the Sonoran desert. It almost never rains. Even when it does rain, it's monsoon rain--warm rain that settles down after a little while.
      Keeping this in mind, imagine our surprise when it rained ALL NIGHT LONG. Not only that, it was so flooded that my school (in addition to many other school districts) decided to close for the day. According to classmates on Facebook, parts of our school are 2 ft. underwater. Also, I saw TV coverage of the freeway that showed cars (and trucks!) with water up to the windows. Basically, it feels like the flood in the story of Noah's ark to the people of a state that only gets a few inches of rain every year. Apparently, we're getting the leftover rain from Hurricane Norbert.
      Despite the rain, I am keeping productive (unfortunately). Here is my to-do list:

This is SO weird, you guys. This has to be the least likely place for something like this to happen.
