I guess I’m saying people will start reporting obs and stop mocking this as a non-event shortly after sunrise. I think we’ll get some help from compressional heating before the sun does most of the work. I was just outside moving some furniture and it’s already gusty here. Could also see some low level clouds racing across the sky just above the surface... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whineminster Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I'm scared...I should have cut all trees within 1,000 feet of my house just to be sure I'm safe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post I quoted was you saying we’d say wow that’s the worst we’ve ever seen....so you said that. I’m looking at the woods as I type this. How different will it look tomorrow? My thoughts are not much. I may have some limbs go through. Widespread limb damage yes. Widespread loss of trees no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
