WWWWEEEEE Chad I just had a weird experience. I went out as well just now and of course being bike week you just have to dodge the harleys every where. As I came around the corner a really strong gust came through (really weird because the wind came from one direction and then in the next instant changed directions) the guy on the Harley in front of me lent into the corner as the wind came and he landed on his butt! I stopped and asked if he was ok...he looked at me and said "wow that was wild" picked up his bike and drove off leaving me staring at him with an open mouth! I just hope he was ok.:o:

Anyway it does look like another line is coming through, tonight could be interesting (although the daytime heating for me is over I think we went from the upper 70's down to lower 60's already)
