We have had terrible winds here since early afternoon.  I went outside and could hardly walk.  It even turned over my huge official city garbage can.  It's still blowing and roaring hard.  Temperature tomorrow is supposed to drop 20° lower than today.  The whole state is under a severe fire warning since dried tumbleweeds are piled as high as walls in many places and they burn like paper.  I heard this storm is headed toward the upper mid-west so look out!

That storm must be moving north too. Denver is under a blizzard warning through tomorrow. Winds are expected to be 50+ mph. Today was in the 70s! Welcome to spring in the Rockies.  Be safe!

Yes, our winds were 50+ too, but we missed out on the moisture.  Too dry, humidity this afternoon was 11%.

I'm in the Midwest.  It's windy here.  I see some of my neighbors empty flower pots from last summer blew into my backyard last night.

That's got to be some of the winds we had this last week too, the dumpsters out at the roadside all got blown over and all kinds of branches came down!!!!!!  SW Michigan

I'm always interested in the threads about weather, but I do wish everyone would remember to tell us the area they are in (not necessarily specific) so that we could understand where the weather issue is.  It's enough to say, "the Atlanta area" or "N.Carolina mountains".  If you don't at least mention the state, it doesn't tell us much.  Thanks for trying this, please!!

It was 60 in Wyoming Sunday and we had a blizzard yesterday.  High winds and probably 3'' of snow.   So it's all white again. Up to 28º right now.

This weather is very odd.  I don't remember us having so many windy days and high wind warnings like we've been getting the past 2 years. 

 

Yesterday was sunny and about 60, today it's supposed to be 60 but with a chance of rain.  It's cloudy and blah here.  Tomorrow is supposed to be rainy but warm and then Friday, cold and rain/snow mix.  Warm again Saturday and Sunday, cold again Monday.

We went out to lunch yesterday. We were sitting outside. The umbrella from the table next to us went flying over us and two other tables. The winds howled all night long.
