Interesting, I assume whatever has changed in the pattern in recent years has had the opposite effect out this way. 20 years ago we’d average one 60+ gust every 2 years or so. Now they happen multiple times per year.
Last year we had 4 days with 60+ gusts and several others 55+. That includes 71mph on 4/1 and easily 80+ with the microburst on 7/29 (NWS estimated).
I assume when the intradecadal pattern changes again, your winds will increase while we catch a break.
