As a whole like snow intensities, they are over-estimated. If anyone saw a legit 65-70+ gust in foliage dense hardwoods it would look like a tornado ripped through. Yup, Feb 2010 was around 70mph in my area and it made a big mess out of trees with no leaves on them. I lost 10 or more. Would be much worse with leaves.

My friend face timed me at 5pm and he was on the boat , I believe it was just leaving then . It was certainly gusty ..to the point the convo was very brief but him and his gf seemed excited for their get away . The ocean didn’t look rough where they left from . It’s a very short ride . ACK would have been more exciting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty solid to get 40mph measured in an apple orchard. Legit 40s in interior New England is more than enough to take some branches down. How about when a 100 foot Hickory bends halfway over? Damn these winds are nutz. 50 plus 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
