Info from Licensor: Northern California was in the midst of a record rain fall. I had just spent the day evacuating my store in town because it was expected to flood. I had got everything out with the help of friends. Later in the evening I was listening to the rain and horrible wind beating on my house. It had been raining non stop for 26 hours and had another 6 to go I noticed dripping coming from my ceiling in my living room so I put a bucket under the drip hoping it would stop. While I sat there I noticed cracks forming so I decided I'd take some video for insurance possibly and 5 seconds after I turned on the camera the ceiling fell. Three mins after the ceiling caved I lost electricity for two days. I sat down in the dark, laughed for a while then gave up and went to bed.
