Eek! The Wind!
I can understand winds with storms, but gusty to 30 mph with no storm is unnerving. Howler.

1. This is unusual for you then? Where do you live? This is not unusual
here in California or where I came from, in Chicago.(The Windy City)

2. Hi neighbor!
I am in Kansas and find it hard to believe you guys never get this! Are you in the Ozarks and perhaps more protected than on the prairie? I just got home from my farm and it is blowing so hard I could hardly stand up when walking against it. WhoooHoooo, it is 20 degrees and we have little stingy snow flurries moving through. Apparently the wind is here for the day so don't be too unnerved.

5. Nope. I'm nestled in the hills
Oh we get wind sometimes. Like in March. Or with storms.

I can't keep my furnace lit. The wind keeps blowing out the pilot.

Hi Kansas neighbor. You in the flatland like Oklahoma.

4. That can't be fun.
I occasionally find myself pulling a 30 foot horse trailer, empty or full I don't care to do it in the wind.
