750? Let's launch and get those crosswind landings outa the way! :loco: :yesnod: :nonod:
 
If you launched into that headwind you could have a negative groundspeed in a Learjet. Pretty cool.
 
NOAA-NWS actually did issue that text. Then they corrected it, changing 750 to 75.

Try googling the double-quote phrase "gust reports of up to 750". When I do that I see cached text with the 750, but clicking the link yields the corrected text with the 75.
 
That'd make for one heck of a tailwind. :D
 
Dang, I happened to take this yesterday around the time I didn't fly, in SoCal...

750 mph is just a mild breeze for those Santa Ana winds out there. ;)
It's not the 750 mph winds that get you with Santa Anas, it's the 750 deg temps they bring :eek:

Nauga,
who says, "but it's a dry heat."
 
Saw something similar in the AFSS weather briefing for @MA @NH. Fat fingers, virtual keyboards, and speech to text are the common causes.
.
At least they made the appropriate changes before the fake news media got hold of it.

IT NEVER HAPPENED HERE.

We had the same language here in San Antonio Heights- we face heading 200 true - 2100' up, full exposure - never saw sustained winds above 8 knots.
