    Lost about 30 feet of fence (well, not lost, just knocked over), gained a trashcan and a lot of trash. Looked at my new roof from the ground, don't see anything worrying. Someone from the roofing company will be out this week to make sure everything is still good, don't think we exceeded the wind ratings of our new roof.

    Neighbor phoned me at work to tell me his trampoline went flying into my house. I think it will just require some touch-up paint but I'm not going to look. A colleague told me gusts up to 100 mph were recorded at Cheyenne Mountain. It has sounded crazy since about 2 AM ...

    I have some fence posts that have rotted away from their foundation. Was busy this morning pounding metal poles into the ground and shoring up those fence posts. Glad I did it at the time or the wind would have blown whole sections down. Need to get replaced one of these years.

    Same for us for once. Kinda weird watching everyone else report issues with wind.

    It was a balmy 63 today in Fort Collins, at 6:00 AM it was 53 and light winds. Mostly, up here, the ice is melting. It is a little breezy out but nothing dangerous, didn't even blow ove an empty trash can.
