Welcome back CLA, I've missed your reports over the past week. You certainly are correct about the recent winds. I have no way to measure the wind speed but it was nuts on my side of the island this weekend. I don't think the wind ever stopped from Thursday night through Saturday night. I now have a 6' snow drift in front of my place on the south side of a peninsula. The wind carries the snow over the peninsula and drops it just on the other side. I made the mistake of leaving the sled on the ice overnight on Friday. By Saturday morning it wouldn't start so I opened the hood and found the entire engine compartment hard packed with snow. It even got through the air filter and into the air box.
