ShawniganLake Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 Sort of interesting that some places will see two separate wind events in the same day today. The front earlier brought wind gusts to 60mph at Saturna island earlier. The next front is quickly approaching and winds are already back up to 46mph and should top 60mph late this evening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their monsoon season wrapped up couple months ago and peak heat is ramping up. No more rain and averaging triple digits with 95%+ humidity. Need to mentally prepare for this one.

It's something all of us have dealt with. The change of the clocks is well worth it at this latitude. I guarantee if we go to permanent daylight time everyone will be bitcching about the 9am sunrises in December.

And permanent standard time will probably never happen because people in the northern states love their long summer evenings. So we just deal with the clock change twice a year. I could deal with a 9 a.m. sunrise to have daylight until 6 p.m. in the winter. The days are short no matter how you slice it. 7 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
