conv: When the rain came down hard in our area_comma_ I was ready for the flooding that was going to happen.  When the weather was getting bad and it rained hard in our area_comma_ I was ready for the flooding that was going to happen in our neighborhood.  That does not sound fun. What did you do to prepare.  I had an emergency generator_comma_ extra food and first aid kits at the ready. I did not want my family in danger. That is very smart thinking!
