Wind Storm AAR

 Other than the wind howling all night, and a backyard full of Nature's Pruning of the Trees, we got through things alright. There were about a dozen semis blown over on I-25 North of Wellington and then CDOT closed the road to large vehicles.

The area where The Kids live was powered off, and they just now (1530 local) had power restored. 

Trees down, power lines down, vehicles blown over, roofs damaged, and wind gusts here in town of 60+MPH.

Things are back to normal, and the temps will be in the high 60's, low 70's this coming week.

  1. Glad you guys came through OK with the storm.

    We're here at Waco to observe the solar total eclipse but the weather isn't looking too good for observing. There is also a remote possibility of tornadoes after the eclipse tomorrow (Monday) evening.

  2. Glad to read you are all right, drjim. Praise God for that.
    I am praying no serious weather here in Louisiana the next few days.
    You all be safe and God bless.

    1. It was the windiest I've seen it in seven years. We had a very windy February the year we moved in, but nothing like this since.
