Big Weather
The Ice Storm

By Barry Hannah
The Gale
Forty-knot winds. Fifty-foot seas. And a ship that suddenly seems like a shanty.
By Robert Stone
Floods
Streets submerged, people in boats, pigs on roofs--that's some rain dance.
By William S. Burroughs
Tornadoes
The anvil is on the horizon, waiting to make its mark. When it does, you'll know it.
By Jane Smiley
