  Speaker 3: stage in the pouring rain. Parents are now asking why
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: the plans continued despite the rain and if they could
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: have made a different call. It was the announcement Brooklyn

  Speaker 3: Nax had waited for since her freshman year.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Brooklyn Michelle, I was wearing my tom shoes. My shoes
• 2:08

• 2:16
  Speaker 3: School was already set before the first drop fell. An
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: email from Williamson County Schools said graduation would go on Thursday,
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: rain or shine, But as conditions shifted, Brooklyn's godmother, Michelle
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: Wyatt's concern shifted from celebration to safety.

  Speaker 4: My concern is you had elderly who number one, were
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: now put in danger because of the weather. They are
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: puddles of water. They can't see. Now you run the
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: risk of people falling.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: Brooklyn says. She sang the star spangled banner with her poncho,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: offering little protection.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Then what were you gonna do with a football?
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: Feel full of people and you have lightning this coming down.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: And beyond the weather. Brooklyn says parts of the ceremony
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: itself never happened, including a moment of silence planned for
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: a classmate who died last year. I hope he was
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: going to graduate with us.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: We could at least you a limit of silence.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: Williamson County School says administrators monitored weather conditions throughout the
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: day and said they would adjust timing based on forecasts
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: and radar, but clearly downpours came well before the ceremony
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: was over.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: I was really st because I've been so excited for
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: my graduation since freshman year, and it's always been.

• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Kim Rafferty News Channel.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Five, the forecast called for torrential rain. Torrential I don't
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: even know what that means. I don't even know if
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I'm pronouncing it right. Okay, the rain was Boothy's government name. Okay,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: y'all still had the graduation outside.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: They said it was a tropical depression.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: If the weather is depressed, why would you not take
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: this inside?
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Why would you hold a graduation in the middle of
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a tropical depression?
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I don't trust meteorologists either, but if they tell you
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: that a tropical depression is coming, if.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: They tell you that the rain is torrential, then why
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: risk it? Okay?
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Why would you want these kids looking like they just
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: participated in an episode of neckad and Afraid?

• 4:34
  Speaker 1: parents crying, grandparents smiling, everybody dressed nice, taking pictures. Okay,
• 4:40

• 4:43
  Speaker 1: graduation turned into a baptism. This is how you get
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: pneumonia in your ass.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Okay. And what pisses me.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Off if they knew the rain was coming, it was
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: monitoring it, and there was no backup plan.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: What about the gym? What about the auditorium, cafeterias? Hell
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: at least a tenth from Party City. Ok you mean to.
