We've had some crazy weather lately...the temps reached record highs monday and tuesday, and then the party was crashed late last night by a cold front. All night, we could hear the winds howling outside - the local news this morning was reporting repeated gusts over 50mph, trees down, power outages, cats and dogs living together, utter chaos.
And we seem to have gotten thru it unscathed. We never lost power, so the tree trimming by AEP last fall must have done some good.
The only things I noticed this morning were that the cushions from our outside chairs were blown off, and...that's about it. The car shelter was still where I'd left it when I got home. That thing can really take some punishment. The wind whipping thru the cover all night sounded like it was being ripped to shreds over and over, but it just shook it off.

i dunno--as sick as it sounds, i miss the mid-west american winter. but i don't miss what you're describing--record highs followed by the cold with crazy storms. it's not great over here, but at least the temps are within like 10-15 degrees of each other, all the time. cold, wet, miserable--but predictable. in saying this, tomorrow will something like 25C and friday will be -20C. i know it.
