"Stormy Weather" (1943) Lena Horne, Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald did the song (not the audio on this) - summed it all up - BTW this is Chicago - Rain drops keep falling on my head. (somewhat bald (koool)).
A severe thunderstorm shattered windows in the iconic Chicago, 110-story Willis Tower (Sears Tower), skyscraper and knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of people. - broken glass - blow me away - huf huf huf ( the wolf ) tornado - why? where do you go? - the Windy City! - not NYC ( New York City) The term "Windy City" actually came from the windbag (very verbose) politicians - not natures wind.

    Great little film!! Amazing to see the rain and clouds move in, as the world (out of your window) nearly disapears !! I've always hear you really have the storms there ... but the problem in NY is there is no real 'reason' for rain there :... except for central park of course :D No offense, Boston rains daily, or snows, and will suprise you with sudden changes in temps. I love rain, so I love your work here :D Marvelous!!
