October 2nd, 2007 - Tuesday

Apparently while I was out of town in Sarasota this weekend enjoying the unseasonally mild tempuratures, Miami was getting pounded by a torrential downpour.

It seems as though the satelite dish on top of the building I work in got struck by lightning, which ripped a hole in the roof and flooded the offices. This is what I saw when I came into work on Tuesday.

Nothing but ripped up carpet, dehumidifiers, and wires as far as the eye could see. Luckily there was no damage in the studio so our work flow wasn't interupted besides the servers and internet getting disconnected every few minutes. Oh and the power surges from all the dehumidifiers being plugged in.

Now that there is a hole in the roof and it is 190 billion degrees outside, it is hot as hell in here. Plus, the dehumidifiers are making me itchy. Sigh.

I love living in the tropics. At least it wasn't a hurricane. Again.
