Scary wind


End of another false spring

What was it, the fifth or sixth false spring since Christmas? The photo was taken about an hour before sunset with the new video camera at full zoom looking down our side street toward the Penobscot River. Now after dark, a frigid reminder that it's still February is roaring in on a 50 mph wind. Hear the sound...

This afternoon the Mount Washington Observatory recorded sustained wind velocity of 120 mph with gusts up to 137 mph!
