Picnickers Flee Thunderstorm at SBUS Annual Cookout

As I started down the path to the RMU SBUS annual cookout, I began to feel drops.  Hoping to still get in a quick lunch, I proceeded to the picnic only have the heavens open up just as I reached for a plate.  People grabbed electronics and other perishables and ran for cover.  Within seconds, the cookout was officially over.  Some slightly damp faculty, staff, and administrators gathered together in the RoMo cafe to commiserate and munch on slightly soggy cookies.  Despite several thinly veiled comments from my colleagues, I did NOT bring the rainstorm with me!
