Take a look at 5 am…
must be the passage of a warm front…
Although it certainly doesn’t feel warm with 25mph gusts.
Winter storm passing by Canada, we get the wind… 38mph gust here so far… power was out for about an hour, UPS kept me on line for 50 minutes before it shut down
you guys in the middle of a continent dont know what windy is, LOL
you should try living only a few miles from the coast where the country is only 15 miles wide (NZ is very narrow here) , in the middle of the worlds largest ocean (well the bottom left hand corner)
then you will know what windy is (where the average windspeed for the whole month is often as high as 12 knots (13mph)
That may be very true. Now add some snow to this “light breeze” and we have interesting driving . Right now we are having an unusal December, which in Iowa, translates ,… Just wait…
i don’t know. some of those chinook winds can get over 100 mph, especially in the winter
yeah, cold and wind is no good!!!
i was refering to a high average we get here 
but we also get plenty of strong winds too, with 45 to 50 knots (48 to 55mph or so) winds every month from one or more weather systems…
probably nothing equivalent to the amount of hot air from these boards either? :oops:
the interesting thing about that graph is that its a big temperature rise, but its from the north , which would normaly mean a colder air mass for the northern hemisphere, yes?
Yes, normally air from the north is an artic blast… which is why it’s cold and snowy today (welcome to the Midwest!).
That vertical line looks far too straight to be real. There are two other similar looking lines on the graph (00:10 and 06:30). It looks more to me like WD may have been off for a number of hours and the graph catches up when it’s restarted. If you move the graph line from 0610 (approx) right by about 4-5 hours it would fit with a slowly dropping temperature rather than a sudden drop of 6 degrees within a minute.
Yes, I agree, it does look suspicious. No suggestion of an upward thrend though.
