Did you sleep through it? That is almost like a hurricane.
Stay safe.

We had high winds like that one night and we had trees toppled over and windows broken out of store fronts. It looked like we had a tornado except the buildings weren't as damaged as a tornado. We were living in a trailer house at the time!!! It was the only time we ever left because of safety. Good luck, Haley!!!

We had horrible winds last night too. Thought the roof was going to come off, it was so loud. There are so many limbs and trees down and I'm seeing pieces of grain cilos out in fields. We still have so much high water and the roads are breaking down.

Janet the weather by you , Haley and I are the same. Today the winds were brutal. I was driving on the highway and my car seemed to shift over from the wind. Scary...

That is too scary! Do you remember when you weren't allowed on the top level of the Verrazano Bridge on very windy days if you had a van?

We had some wind, snow and rain, but it really helped to get rid of a lot of the snow and ice.

Actually I was on my way to the dentist in SI. My friend told me that the upper level of the Verrazano Bridge was closed in the afternoon.

I bet it was crowded on the lower level!
