Huge wind in Calgary
The storm system is bringing in some crazy wind. Windows creaking, buildings swaying. Fun stuff. If on the road...drive smart and safe!

Just move here?  That is your post. When windows pulse and crack and creak...it is interesting.
Were you hoping for a very large wave coming first?
Thanks for posting.

My Bradley smoker is laboring to keep temps this morning,
And I figured I better top up the wiper fluid in my vehicle. Horizontal spray headed East  I think SOME made it into the resevoir.

It isn't windy in the pass until semi's get blown over. The wind brings change of all kind.
