Im about as worried as I can be for Stormfront. Weve gone almost three whole weeks without rain now, our reservoirs are bottoming out. Braeburn is in here everyday, talking about his trees. I can sympathize with him, those things contribute to the vast majority of our economy over here. But if this doesnt let up soon, our troubles are going to be a lot worse than dried up apples. Ive stopped sending letters to Canterlot, I know theyre looking for her. Weve started rationing.
Theyll send another Southwind back to us with a storm soon, but its not going to be as much as we need until somepony can find the actual clouds that were earmarked for us. You never really realize how much organizing those ponies do until theyre missing.

News came down, Lucky Stars has been canned from the Northwind chair in Manehattan. Not so lucky after all. I didnt really know her, but the report says that her miss-allocation of resources combined with Stormfronts absence has resulted in the majority of the local weather problems.
I got a letter from Rainbow today, too. Most of our clouds ended up en route to Ponyville. Im doing my best to keep everyponys tempers down, including my own. We need those HERE, and by the time anypony gets up there to tell the pegasus ponies that are driving them, its already going to cost us another day.

| Luck! Stormfronts been found, I just got the letter from Canterlot today. Its scanty on the details, but theres something about her being held against her will by a malevolent native of the frozen north. Its a story Ill be wanting to hear in person, thats for sure. Im elated that shes alive, we were all pretty worried there for a while. The letter says she reported in a couple days ago and is almost to Ponyville. Should get there just a little ahead of our errant clouds. |
| Rains on the way. |

Wind kicked up big around noon today. The dry spell has all the dust loose on the ground, caused a major dust storm. Im still picking dirt out of the window-blinds. Towns a mess, but I havent seen ponies this high spirited in a while. Were tired, were wore out, but weve finally got some closure on the rain situation. Its still going to be a little bit, but its coming.
I know Ill be dancing in it.

| Derpy came by today with an emergency shipment from Ponyville. Its not the downpour we need, but its a damn-site better than what we had, and itll tide us over until the real thing arrives. I wish I could be happier about it. Last night, after the dust storm, Maybelle and Cracked Corn found an old mine outside of town that had been buried by dirt. They came back and told their folks, and were told not to go inside it. |
| I can only assume, based on the missing pony reports on my desk, that they snuck out at night and did exactly that. Nopony has seen them in 10 hours. |

Im retracting my previous statement. We went and investigated the mine, it goes no where. Wind uncovered the top of it, but the interior is filled with sand withing 30 feet of the entrance. When I got back to town I had 6 more missing pony reports on my desk. Adults, foals, related, unrelated. No discernible pattern. Nopony has seen anypony coming or going, either. Were I a lesser mare, I might be scared right about now.
Weve already done a town-wide search to no avail, tomorrow well branch out in to the larger countryside.

Half my town is missing. I walked out of my home this morning to see ponies sobbing for absent loved ones in the streets, and business doors locked and bolted with no lights behind them. They dont answer when I knock on the doors. Scared. Or missing. What can take a pony from inside a locked house is beyond me. No hoofprints coming or going, but ponies are starting to panic, and Im getting worried about abandonment. We might have something really bad on our hooves here.
In the interests of the safety of greater Equestria, Im issuing quarantine as of now. Im not looking forward to the looks Im going to get for that, but whatever this is, I cant let it leave.

I sent Humdinger to light the warning fires this morning. Ten minutes later I saw the smoke rising. Five minutes after that, it stopped. He didnt come back. At first I thought hed chickened out, put the fires back out so that help wouldnt get scared away, but then others were gone too.
Coincidence, maybe.
Jazzy ran in here around noon, tears in her eyes, slapping missing pony reports on my desk. Tried to calm her down, but she ran back out. Just for a second, she said, to check the building next door. Didnt come back. I lit the fires again myself, and ran back to the office as fast as I could. I dont know why I feel safe in here, but its all I have. I kicked the windows in on one of the houses that had been bolted shut from the inside. Nopony there.
I think Im a little scared, at this point. Trying to get over that.
I can’t trust the reports to be accurate anymore, things are happening too fast. Ive told who I can to bunker in and wait for rescue. By my best guess, over of the population of Appleloosa is now missing.
