So the huge storm the midwest is in, is technically a class 3 hurricane.
Last night, the local weather said the gusts all day had been around 70 mph, with consistent wind at 40-50 mph.
Im in Minneapolis/St. Paul.
Oh, and the wind isn't very strong, but only because the friction of the trees and slight hills. That's why 50 mph sounds wimpy for a class 3.
Also, IT SNOWED TODAY.
Weird. A hurricane in minnesota, with snow. It wasnt all snow, so thats why its not a blizzard.
Just thought I would share.

Yesterday we had about 15 minutes of insane rain slash wind. Our school went into emergency weather drills lol. Then later on in the day it was sunny with blue skies. Gotta love the midwest.

I'm in Northfield and it's pretty nasty, not sure if it's hurricane caliber but yeah. My brother had a snow day in Duluth though so that's pretty sick.

I'm pretty sure 70mph is a category 1 hurricane, last I recall from meteorology. To bad that wasn't all snow though huh? It's raining a lot here in DE where I'm at school. It's probably raining in Nj too.

haha thats another thing I learned in class about weather reports. If all they have to talk about is the weather, they're gonna try and make it interesting.
