    A lawnmower looks like it might handle the jobs... will need the trimming done with pruning shears... LOL

    Interesting wind related item, 200mph jet stream pushes jet across Atlantic in record time.
    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/11337617/Jet-stream-blasts-BA-plane-across-Atlantic-in-record-time.html
    The Boeing 777-200 jet reached a ground speed of 745mph as it rode winds of more than 200mph across the Atlantic. At ground level, the speed of sound is 761mph.
    The happy result was a flight time of just five hours and 16 minutes for BA114, which arrived an hour and half before schedule, according to the tracking website, FlightAware.
    Dozens of other flights also benefited from the jet stream’s winter surge, but those same windshave also triggered severe storms across Britain.

    An hour and half on schedule? I wonder if these folks got a refund back? I assume less fuel was used?

    Yep, fuel savings are huge. I don't fly the big ones, but several friends do, and if a flight can ever take advantage of a good tail wind, grab it and run :)

    I doubt the airline passed the savings back down though...

    Next on my wind curiosity is straight line winds...

    About 2 months ago out of nowhere we had a minor storm where we got major straight line winds that destroyed out back yard and destroyed all kinds of property.. We were without power for 4 days.

    What causes these things?

    Warning: This post involves some serious nudity in, erm, compromising positions.

    Today we bring you a wonderful slice of art history that’s been making the internet rounds this week. Plucked straight from Japan’s Edo period, dating back to the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, we present “He-gassen (The Fart Battle),” a very serious depiction of mostly nude characters engaging in the most epic fit of flatulence we’ve ever encountered.

    Was a micro-burst reported anywhere nearby? Very destructive and seems to be a straight, powerful gust as it's hitting, but is really a fast, powerful downdraft.

    I know it was not declared as a torndao, they only described it as straigh line winds of around 82 mph. It caused all kinds of damage and destroyed all power lines about 3 miles long.. it was rough around here for 4 days..

    We had a 100mph gust in Tulsa (27 years ago lol) but that only lasted a minute or so. I've heard of single rogue gusts, but there's usually some kind of convective activity nearby...

    @slimgirljo15 that's a loooot of toilet paper lost to that wind chime lol
