Henry is supposed to leave his house to go to school at 7:15 a.m. This morning, his alarm clock did not go off so therefore he was

late. He checked to see if it was unplugged, but it was not. His alarm clock said it was 6:40 a.m., but Henry checked his phone and it
said 8:00 a.m. Never the less, Henry swiftly got ready, and his mother took him to school in her car. On the way to school. Henry
notices that trees had fallen and there were large puddles in the street. Upon arrival, Henry explained to his teacher that his alarm
clock never chimed.

It didnt go off because it was set to the wrong time. In the begging the text says "His alarm clock said it was 6:40 a.m., but Henry checked his phone and it said 8:00 a.m."
