Wet Sand Blasting

How's 50mph gusts of wind sound? Like some cat squealing through my closed office window that's how! It's freaking windy today. You can just about open your car door. Trash, trashcan lids abound through the island's streets. Now, lets talk about the rain...it's not raining hard but in combination with those island winds...wet sand blasting on everything the winds hit. One good thing about this forecast...it's almost in the mid 50's...so thankfully, it's not cold. I guess one must be grateful for no freeze or no floods. But, it's still a really tough day to tolerate. Footnote: Late morning brought a major storm. Heavy torrential rains and wind gusts hit 70mph! It's now 2:30pm and the weather is-a-changing again. We're completely socked in dense fog. The air is much chillier. Not freezing, but very cold. The fog is brightening with each passing minute as the gray fog is becoming brighter and brighter. The sun is apparently trying its best of showing itself. The winds have stopped too. Extremely diverse weather day.

Same diversity here. Almost got caught in a downpour. The front outside door to the shop was practically shattered yesterday apparently from the winds. Glad I wasn't here to experience that. Hope they replace it soon. Shame-it was pretty much a brand new door.
