Been blowing for a few days here. Not bad where we live, considering. I think the highest we saw was 39 MPH on my home anemometer. 27mph highest in the last 24 hrs. 17 just now. The other day, when we saw 39, the airport in town recorded a few gusts over 50, highest was 53 I think.

We have a ridge behind our place that blocks a good portion of the predominantly S and SW winds. We are usually 10-15mph lower than in town. Makes me happy as 40 mph winds screw with stuff well enough for my needs.

They help sometimes, as the driveway is oriented N/S and those winds can keep parts clear when it's blowing good. I didn't have to clear in front of the garage door yesterday in case we needed to get the car out.
