I estimate each to have produced winds around 100 mph. There was a lot of damage around town.<br /><br />In 1997, our area <a href="http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/pdf/10.1175/1520-0434%282003%29018%3C0662%3AARMSPI%3E2.0.CO%3B2" rel="nofollow">experienced a storm</a> which blew down 13,000 acres of trees. This was the largest known forest blowdown ever recorded in the Rocky Mountain region.<br /><br />Right here in Steamboat Springs, I have also <a href="http://www.steamboatpilot.com/news/2005/sep/30/quake_shakes_city/" rel="nofollow">been awakened by an earthquake</a>. It was minor and did no damage. But, it still shook me out of my sleep.SBVORhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02393495680438358951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3695911547116301280.post-52992158377437010832010-11-21T10:02:49.684-07:002010-11-21T10:02:49.684-07:00We may not have the highest peaks, but they are st...We may not have the highest peaks, but they are still the <b>White Mountains</b>, home of <a href="http://www.mountwashington.org/" rel="nofollow">the World's Worst Weather</a>.<br /><br />Unfortunately, the wind shuts down our lifts sometimes.<br /><br />Live Free or Die.RICHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3695911547116301280.post-25967282073454603652010-11-21T08:48:09.050-07:002010-11-21T08:48:09.050-07:00RICH - Enjoy!RICH - Enjoy!SBVORhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02393495680438358951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3695911547116301280.post-91258981242649137792010-11-21T07:38:38.810-07:002010-11-21T07:38:38.810-07:00Damn that CO2 :)
