Roaring wind

Today we had wind, maybe I should type it WIND. Sustained 25-30 with gusts 45+ mph. All day. I really mean all day! It got so bad mom's fence collapsed, I am sure she's not the only one. I am surprised we didn't loose power. I am sure many people tonight are out of power due to power lines getting knocked down from trees. The roar has been so constant all day, now that it's gone it seems eerily quiet. The joys of April weather!
