Thank you, Steve. As you can see behind me, there clearly is water coming down from above us. I'm safely inside this building's lobby, but we have no idea how this is physically affecting the people who have to go outside. I am told that this occurrence is called "rain," and that there are preventative measures one can take to ward off getting wet from it.
As you can see from this man who stepped out of this office building earlier, things such as a raincoat, rain pants, waterproof boots, a rain hat and an umbrella can help keep one dry. This man chose to wear all of them at the same time, so we think he may not melt from this siege of falling water after all.
Trisha, how is this affecting daily life in the L.A. area?
Glad you asked, Steve. Let's go to that shot from our traffic helicopter that we filmed earlier, which shows the roadways of the entire Los Angeles area. As you can plainly see, the drivers have reduced their speed to a crawl as they attempt to figure out how to maneuver through all this water. This unstoppable force is slowly crippling the entire city as people have wisely decided to stay in their homes and abandon all plans to go to work, school or run errands today.
Thank you, Trisha. Stay tuned to this channel as we continue to bring you news updates on this startling development in addition to relevant school and store closing and event cancellations.
Up next, Weatherman Bob will tell us how long this "rain" will last, and how soon afterwards we can expect to see other signs of the Apocalypse.
That's right, Steve. I'm expecting a cold front to drop about 2 inches of locusts and giant frogs on us sometime by Tuesday of next week. My forecast is coming up in just a few minutes.
We'll be right back after these commercials urging you to spend your money on a new BMW and liposuction before The End finally takes us all.
