    So last night we had a windstorm with gusts up to 40mph.... This is the result, my canopy/carport fell apart and made its mark on my car.

    That... sucks.

    I'm in St. Louis, and it's been insane here all day long. I had to pick the gate from a metal fence up off the road when I'se walked my dog a bit earlier.

    Did I say walking my dog?

    It was more like flying a furry kite.

    Freaking wind...

    US441 from East TN to West NC was actually closed today due to 90-100mph wind gusts.

    Wind isn't natural! Dear God, why!? And there's even rain! We all thought it would be fire and brimstone. This apocalypse blows.
