The other day we had a Nor’easter. Rain and very strong wind most of the day. That was the problem. Between the rain it was okay to go out walking.
When the deluge and wind came, I was lucky I was inside the house.

Whoever owned this umbrella was not. I took this picture the day after. It looks like the umbrella was blown out of the hand suddenly.
I do feel sorry for the umbrella and the person. They would have gotten soaked immediately and the umbrella certainly suffered a quick death.
