I predict southwest or nothing here. It seems like I am sheltered from west and northwest winds. I can't recall ever seeing a significant wind gust from those directions in my time living here. I used to get some pretty wicked west winds when I lived in Surrey.

EC says SW 40-60 for Abbotsford. I'd say in the mid 40's to low 50's range possible out here. But maybe it will be more intense then that. Time will tell.

00z GEM looks pretty chilly to end the month. Ridge is nudged offshore rather than overhead. Results in a backdoor blast....Oregon gets particularly chilly.

and imo this will destroy the Ridge overhead problem this winter..as it will park itself offshore at times when in the vicinity. I still think the #tat resets soon. I like the look of this front incoming today. The future looks solid butties!! Lets think positive here Nito!! :clap: :clap: :clap:
