Well today is a very windy and gusty day in Denver, CO. It is causing issues with fires and with the power around certain areas, so there are going to be brownouts and blackouts from time to time.
So far, my sister has been having brownouts, while the radio station I’m listening too has lost power twice in less then 5 minutes. Yep Mother Nature is having a hay day with everyone here in Denver. Thankfully it hasn’t happened to my area yet, but ours might be less do to our power lines and such being buried under ground.
The weather is very beautiful here today with it being 80 degrees outside. It’s wonderful and relaxing, at least for me, but not for those who will most likely have to be out and about taking care of forest fires, wild fires and grass fires. We do need some rain though cause it’s getting very parched out there moisture wise. I just wish La Nina would just go away, but we already know we can’t stop these cycles from happening.
This is a picture of what the wind is doing outside the patio door. It’s blowing pretty hard out there. I’m think today here in Denver cold almost put the “Windy City” to shame over in Illinois :). People are enjoying this day though, I’m seeing lots of people on their bikes and walking instead of driving, but this usually does happen here in Colorado during the Spring, Summer and Fall seasons :). I can’t wait to be able to take a break on an actual weekend and go driving up in the mountains just to look around and enjoy the beauty that is Colorado and the Rocky Mountains.
Enjoy and I’ll be putting up more posts with pictures in it :).
Yesterday was horrible, windwise. I hope they get the fires out soon, that one is like 3050 acres already! So much for a controlled burn!
