Well today it got pretty windy along the Crystal Coast. I saw this morning they were calling for winds of 40 to 45 MPH. Then just a minute ago, I heard there was a strong storm cell moving through the area that could produce winds up to 65 MPH.
Not a good day for fishing or anything outdoors really. I was nearly blown into Bogue Sound while walking my dog earlier. And with the cooler temps and cold water, it would have been no picnic.
The worst part is we’re in for a cooldown after this wind moves out of here. Apparently there’s some cold front generating all the wind. So once it’s gone the temps will plunge downard. Yikes!
I really am spoiled from living on the Crystal Coast. I get cold once the temperature is below 68 degrees. Which is wierd because as a kid growing up in Missouri I was pretty acclimated to much colder temperatures.
At any rate, you know what they say about the weather on the Crystal Coast…”If you don’t like the weather, stick around it will change soon.”
