To create a coherent sequence of events, you can arrange the responses in the following order:
-
I watched the weather forecast with a mixture of excitement and dread. Meteorologists were predicting that a huge snowstorm would bring a foot of snow to our state!
-
I’m sure I will need to do a lot of shoveling, but right now that doesn’t concern me in the least.
-
I’m standing outside and letting the flakes accumulate on my jacket and hat.
This order builds from the anticipation of the snowstorm to the realization of the consequences, and finally to the experience of being outside in the snow.
