Our heat wave ended here also...abruptly...with a 20+ degree temperature drop in one five minute period. When the wind kicked-in at my place it was if the heavens turned on a giant leaf blower. It came up that fast. Sustained winds in the 30-40 mph range with 60+ mph gusts all day long. Trees and power lines are down all over the western half of the state. My internet blew away (Roadrunner) and I hope it comes back soon as I can't come to work and get on-line every day. I took my family out to breakfast around 11:00 am and the wind was blowing our Camry all over the highway!!!

I decided that there are too many "Widow Makers" waiting to come down and chose to leave the bikes alone yesterday.
