Have you ever been in a storm before? What did you do to stay safe?

Hi Eva, 

Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like it was a very challenging time. I’m glad to hear that you stayed safe at home, even though the storm caused a lot of damage. You did a great job explaining what happened and how it took time to recover. Keep up the good work with your writing!
