....and it's super gusting here as well. Reports up to 90 MPH in certain parts of the state. This is normally a breezy area anyway. but the last couple of days have been unusually windy, even for us. At least it's still warm. I hate the winds, makes my eyes dry and itchy.

something just hit my house and it could be branches from my tree. The street is getting pretty clutter with the mess.
