We dodged full sheets of plywood blowing across the road earlier. :)
 
How about 28G56? That was reported at one nearby airport on October 30. Locally we only saw 22G33. You can’t even fly a cinder block kite when it’s that calm.
 
We saw gusts to 55 last night over the island power was out from 1:00PM after 1:00 AM.

seems to happen each November

Which brings up the inevitable question about logging.

You fly an LSA (like mine) with a stall speed on the order of 35 knots. The wind is blowing 40. Tie a long rope between a solid object and the prop flange. Fly for an hour. Can I log that as PIC?
