    Hi HD
    It is quite mild now, yesterday was quite spring like sunny around 42F , today it is 60mph lots of rain, and a mild 46F, last night was 33F just above freezing it has been an exceptionally mild winter much like a lot of the US has had although we don't get as severe cold as you just constant storms and high winds.

    I don't know that I've ever seen a 60mph wind. Maybe a rogue gust during a severe thunderstorm. wow! :jaw:
