20 MPH winds happen pretty often around here. 35 MPH in some stretches and in gusts is not at all uncommon. It all just leads to getting stronger.
The main reason that the wind bothers me anymore is that it blows a lot of crud off the road and into my eyes. This time of year there's still salt dust on some of the roads that gets blown around. Most of the year it's just sand and dust from the gravel roads.
