words of wisdom for the santa ana winds....
F**K YOU! The wind through the canyon ripped the targa off my parked car (cleared the hood thank God) but road rashed it very nicely. That is all. |

QUOTE(scotty b @ Oct 13 2008, 05:46 PM)  I hear about these things alot but never heard what kinda of speed they are. Are they constant or gusts ? you get sustained 30-40 mph winds with gusts that will peak at 60 or 70 mph. On the the more severe days it will go even higher. The speeds in the canyons and on some peaks can reach over 100 mph and in fact they would classify as a category 2 hurricane. two years ago our next door neighbors digital anenometer at 94 mph! here is the wikipedia page on the subject, expaliningthe how's and why's of the santa anas winds . |
