Can't Miss It: Monday
We just got back from biking downtown, and even the flats felt like uphill because of the wind gusts. If they had been sustained, we're pretty sure we would have ended up going backwards. The B-Town Blog, sharing our surprise, has a post up about the 43-mph wind gusts they've recorded at Sea-Tac today. Maybe this is that windstorm from the other week that never showed up. Cliff Mass calls this a "modest Pacific disturbance," which we're not sure we entirely agree with. Anyway, watch out for loose branches and umbrellas for the duration. UPDATE: Also, try not to get sand in your eyes--in the wind canyons of downtown, we hear pedestrians are getting pelted by sand, which is also migrating into buildings.

What scares me about Cliff's description of this wind is that he's predicting an even stronger event later this week.
Can we make a formal declaration that Cliff Mass is our official local expert on all things weather? Are we at consensus on this yet?
That's one good thing about Snowpocalypse 2008--I discovered Cliff Mass's blog! And I'm never going back!
