Just call me Mike
Actually Mike, many of the large Albezia trees that survived Iselle were weakened and the most recent winds were enough to finish them off.
I agree lavalava.
More trees came down in my immediate vicinity this time than Iselle brought down.
Even though the winds were not as strong.
But, they were odd.
They would change direction in seconds as if they were like swirling currents in an eddy.
The winds came mostly out of the SSW to SW.
But the gust that blew my lilikoi trellis down [the one that Iselle didn't even phase] came out of the North.
Iselle's wind directions were predictable, if you knew where the eye was.
This one did not seem as well ordered.
That's why I am curious as to what were the conditions that caused the Valentine's Day wind storm.

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
