Since setting record high temperatures on Thanksgiving, our weather has been on the windy side with wind gusts measured above 30 mph each day since somewhere in the state. The featured chart presents the climatology of having one or more hours of wind observations at or above 30 mph for each day of the year. The annual signal is clear with these events more limited in the summer and peaking during the transition seasons of spring and fall. There are some localized peaks due to peaks in thunderstorms and strong winter storms.
