history: I live in Florida and experience hurricanes. Two recent hurricanes have threatened my home and potentially my life. I decided to ride out a hurricane in my home. It was one of the scariest experiences ever. Oh my_comma_ it must have been so scary! Do you live in an area commonly affected by hurricaines? I am in Florida_comma_ so yes. The sounds are the worst. The howling of the winds and the rain and debris pelting your home.
current: Was your home damaged? Was anyone hurt in your area? I've never seen a hurricaine, except on the news. 
next: I had a downed tree and roof damage, no one died around here but lots of homes were lost.
