Blowing best of the day now.  Still though not a lot of impact around here it seems.

Damage will be minimal compared to an equivalent event in the fall with so little foliage on the trees. Also more damage would occur on a NE or SE event since it's not the prevailing wind direction. 

Still, some decent power outages going on considering it's a northwesterly flow event.

Garbage can catastrophe out there. LWM peak gust is only 48mph so far but things seem to be winding down here. Not to shabby but I was expecting more. Not trying to downplay some of the higher gusts at ORH that were pretty impressive but I think my expectations are set high after Oct 29/30 2017 and the March 2018 paste job that rivaled the damage in the 2008 ice storm here. Really trying to find LWM data for the Oct event with no luck(any help much appreciated.) I think we would have had to gusted to 65-70 with the damage I had in my hood.
