Every type of person that tweeted about the LA rain storm

From the guy who made rain political to the girl who just wants to leave work

On the eve of the rain storm, sandbags were placed in front of doors, cars were moved out of parking lots that threatened to flood, and umbrellas were the hottest commodity at the local CVS.

Angelenos prepared for the storm as if there were a category three hurricane hitting the center of the city. But who could blame them for a little panic when “rain” normally means “drizzle” and “wind” normally means “light breeze?” Since no one dared to leave their warm, cozy homes to face the uncertainty of the biggest storm in LA since Kanye’s break down on stage in Inglewood, the Tab looked to Twitter to compile a list of every type of person who reacted to #LArain.

The meme king (and queens) 

The person who just wants an excuse to leave work (and make “rain day” the new “sick day”)

The environmentalist

The person who makes everything political

The person who misses Obama…and the sun

The out-of-stater

The person who knows the difference between rain and the Devil

The person who found a personalized license plate that was “so cool” and needed a caption

The person who regrets not getting their boating license

The profound

The scared

The person who wasn’t planning on leaving their house anyway…what rain?

The person who is “mobbing”

The #blessed 

The concerned student 

The person trying to protect their hair

The person trying to make a new hashtag happen

…and Stormy, who was improperly named 

Stay safe out there, Angelenos. And buy some better umbrellas.
