Toppling Trees

Trees were blown sideways all over the county yesterday due to winds that gusted up to 58 mph. This one, in Bayview Cemetery, took a few headstones with it.

  1. Are those winds normal for your area?

  2. Three Rivers-- I agree, it is sad. Hopefully they'll replace the tree. From what I saw, the headstones weren't damaged, just knocked over.

    Brattcat-- this time of year, we usually have windstorms up to 50 mph. I believe 58 mph was a record-breaking gust for us, though!
