It was blowing 30 to 40 mph here today also, sounds like it changes to the north after midnight and tommorrow's temp is in the 50s.

Not sure what’s happening down below, but they are saying we could see a light frost Friday morning! And 20-30mph sustained winds Thursday.

Hit 77 today mid twenties by morning and perhaps a bit of snow... and gusting to around 50mph. Its that time of the year.

One of the most miserable windy days I have seen in awhile. Its still howling right now. We came up with a new weather "terminology" today. Forecast was for 30 mph hour winds with gusts to 50. However by afternoon we deemed it 50 mph with "30 mph reprieves" , it was (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) insane!! Blew the roof off the lumber barn at the Topeka, KS Menards store today.

Probably just strong enough and was at the right angle to take something that had been there a while.
I've trapped in Wyoming and had 50+° mph wind, I missed 2 days of 70 mph just before I arrived to trap.
Once driving across the shirley basin it was 70 mph

Wow! And here I thought in KS this is just considered a stiff breeze! Personally, I HATE wind!

Blew me all over the road on my drive home yesterday.

Calling for frost here tonight... Wife thought I was a bit crazy but I told her I wanted to hold off on planting the garden for a bit longer... Looks like my intuition paid off.

We fished the river in a boat and had all we could do to make it for 3 hours fishing time.
Coldest I have been in a boat ever.
