We had 30-40 pretty much all day, with gusts 40+. Took care of the leaves on the trees. Today a gentle 20-25.

4. Almost windless in here. |
|
I'm not sure what it's like outside.
It's kind of cold, the heat has come on a couple time today, and that stirs the air a bit.

6. It was windy most of the day around Detroit |
|
And the rain just poured down, but only for about five minutes.
I was hoping the rain would blow the leaves out of my yard. No such luck.

10. I think there were 25-54 mile gusts at times, but mostly 10-35 winds I think |
|
It came through here (Pittsburgh) pretty quickly and then was gone.

13. It's been windy all day here in NE Illinois |
|
I hate wind--it makes me nervous.
We're supposed to have more wind tomorrow.
It really bothers me when the house shakes.

14. Spectacularly windy. 40+kt gusts at the airport (MSP). |
|
Lowest recorded barometric pressure ever in MN, something like 28.41. This would be a cat3 hurricane if it were warmer, a blizzard if colder. Fortunately it's just hellaciously windy.
