Earlier this week I blogged about my excitement of attending the Taste of Champaign-Urbana. This evening I was asked to work at the WPGU tent. Work, meaning handing out T-shirts, chat with the locals, you know. The usual. Be the friendly face of WPGU.
This evening I got in my car and began driving to West Side Park. As I was driving, the rain started. Shortly after the wind. Next came the lightening and then the hail.
I call WPGU’s station manager, Jon Hansen, and tell him the situation. Him, being in Chicago for the night, didn’t know the extent of what was going on. I follow orders from Jon to stick around and wait out the storm in my car.
In the end, the Taste of Champaign-Urbana was cancelled for the night. On the plus side, I got some pretty intense pictures of the damage at West Side Park.
Now, all I’m curious about is why my roommate didn’t have enough common sense to close all the windows in our apartment while this storm was going on…
