There's a big storm coming, with icy winds! I just finished circling the house, making sure everything that the wind can pick up is put away. We're also expecting snow tonight and tomorrow so we'll see how that works out with the wind!
It's fun to storm watch this time of year - sometimes the waves crash over the 30 ft. breaker wall up over the railing and onto the sidewalk, giving you a chilly salt bath (if you don't know better and stand there, lol!). We get hurricane-force winds every winter here at Juan de Fuca Strait.
The worst Pacific storm I've ever been in had 90km sustained winds and horizontal rain, and walking in it was very difficult, it took all my strength just to stay vertical. And the rain hurt my face like gun pellets, it was painful but amazing!
The sky is the color of lead, and the wind's picking up!
