Wind!

We've had some interesting wind in the last 24 hours. The highest gust reported here was 36 at 2121h on Monday. Because the weather station only records wind every 2 seconds and then averages the speed over that time, we tend to miss the actual high gusts, so the actual high gust must have been over 40mph. We were also treated to several lake effect snow squalls. When you consider that the fetch of the wind bringing snow from Lake Erie is around 250 miles, that's really quite amazing!
