Weather Threatens to Wash Out Autumn Leaf Festival With Rainstorm; Locals Forced to Take Shelter

Residents were forced to take shelter mid-Sunday afternoon after a rainstorm threatened to end Autumn Leaf Festival. According to sources, residents were hoping to enjoy a nice sunny day when all of a sudden raindrops began to fall from the heavens.

"I was afraid for my life," states Mr. Drama Queen, a resident of Clarion County, who likes to spend time at the most dramatic bars. "It began to sprinkle, and I was afraid my skin might melt as a result."

Officials are warning residents to stay indoors until the last cloud is cleared from the sky. Others, however, state that they cannot allow this tyranny to go on and that fear is the weather's greatest weapon.

"I've already bought an umbrella," states Miss Exaggerate Circumstance. "I want to send a message to the weather that I am not afraid, and that I will stand up to this tyranny. I don't know who is controlling the clouds, but I refuse to let them rain over our land."

Other locals also say that they refuse to be under the weather, with many demanding the political powers to fight against the cloud with every resource they have available. Unfortunately, the only thing the town has to throw is a few tomatoes, but nobody has the arm strength to reach that high.

Event coordinators have not announced whether or not they plan to continue festivities throughout the week. The Clarion County military states that they will be putting up defenses to help shield people against the water, form of fire, and brimstone. In the meantime, locals are encouraged to buy as many water deterrent products as they possibly can and to prepare for future attacks.
