Can you share some funny hurricane stories?
Well, there was this time in a small coastal town during a hurricane. The local bakery had a big sign outside. The wind was so strong that it blew the sign off and carried it right into the mayor's front yard. The sign landed perfectly upright as if it was meant to be there. And then there's the story of a group of surfers. They thought it would be fun to go out during the early stages of a hurricane (which was very dangerous, but they were reckless). They got caught in a big wave and ended up on a beach a mile away from where they started, all wet and laughing at their own stupidity.
A funny hurricane story I heard was from a couple who were camping near the coast when a hurricane warning came. They quickly packed up their tent but in the chaos, they accidentally packed their cat with the tent poles. As they were driving away, they heard meowing from the back. Also, in a town hit by a hurricane, a little boy's kite got caught in the wind and instead of flying away, it got stuck on the top of the church spire. The whole town watched as the kite flapped around during the storm, and it became a sort of symbol of hope during the difficult time.
One funny hurricane story is when a family in Florida was preparing for a hurricane. They boarded up their windows but forgot about their pet parrot outside. When the wind started, the parrot flew to the window ledge and started squawking at them as if scolding them for leaving it out. Another is during a hurricane in the Caribbean, a man was trying to hold on to his hat in the strong wind. He ended up chasing it all over his yard, while his dog thought it was a new game and joined in the chase.
