The windy season strikes again! I don't mind the cold, ice and snow, freezing rain or plain old cold rain but the wind in this holler is enough to drive you nuts and knock you on your A double S if you ain't careful. I got a weather station which I'm gonna attempt to mount to the deck but, I'm confident that the wind will tear it to shreds. I want to know if my estimate of wind gusts is accurate. My guess is over 60 mph based on how it feels riding my bike. Accuweather says 45 mph gusts in Blowing Rock which is always lower than in the venturi section of the holler where our home is located. It messes with my internet which takes me to the point of exasperation. Plus, Georgia Southern are beating App St at home in OUR crappy weather, it's a disgrace aaarghh!
