When the winds finally calmed down last last night, they shifted and we had a full on blizzard last night.

Just so you know, with 110 MPH winds you might as well have hurricanes, all your missing is the rain.

I spent a couple of months in WY a few years back, and the wind was terrible!

I can't even imagine what 110 mph is like. We had winds around 40 mph a couple times this winter and I think that was it.

110 MPH is supposed to be class 3 hurricane force. According to our local guys the peak gust that we had at our house was 76 MPH. That's why we live in a single story house.

Actually a hurricane might be better....there is some calm in the middle.

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Having experienced numerous tornado, several hurricanes, snow falling horizontally at 100 mph in the near arctic and a few dozen N'or Easters, I'd take a bit of a blow in Wyoming over any of the them!
