PeacemakerJack 10,671 #89 Posted March 13, 2019 sounds like that will be similar for us here in the Midwest over the next couple of days. There is a huge storm system that is moving from Colorado into the Midwest bringing rain, snow, wind, tornadoes, etc. @Stormin glad that you made it safely thru that rough weather! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 9,976 #99 Posted March 13, 2019 I knew it was wild and windy last night, but I didn't realise how much. The evening news said the wind was 60mph on the coast and on Shap Fell south east of me the wind hit 86mph. Relatively calm tonight. 35mph with 47mph gusts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
