Rewrite the following paragraph so that it is an objective (facts only)
account of the event:
The tropical storm hurled straight toward the shoreline, and
then it stopped. It lingered in one place for two days, gaining
strength—almost like it was waiting for something. Finally, it
charged onto land. Everyone started running like crazy for their
lives. It must have been hurricane strength by then because the
wind ripped the roofs off houses and threw them everywhere.
