At least the windstorm blew the rest of the leaves off the trees around my place. One more raking and I'm done for the season.

It’s very windy tonight.

These winds over the last few days have been leaving a crazy amount of pine needles from the trees all over my car and roadway

-looks like a cold winter is coming to the Lower Mainland.

There's hail falling in East Van now. :suspicious:

bump.

Trees and waving back and forth, I saw a traffic light swinging violently, and I'm now at home and keep hearing all these loud banging noises from outside.

Hope I don't find a big mess tomorrow morning with random trash in my yard. Earlier this year, all my stuff on my patio got blown around and a bunch of stuff fell over.

My god damn BBQ cover almost flew off last night. Went out during the middle of the night and had to tighten up the straps, because it was barely staying on

Pretty windy today at the Langley airport. Had a tree come down next to the hangar and the power keeps kicking off for 30 seconds to a minute. It has taken me nearly an hour to write an email.

Just had a sizable branch come down on the RS. Hoping no damage

Don’t park anywhere near trees. Walk a few blocks if you have to. My car got bombarded with tree nuts, acorn whathaveyou. Like bullets, lol. Then there’s a chance of branches or a whole fucking tree falling on it.

As with high winds in our part of the world, it means the clearing of skies.

A large tree just fell down across the street from my work. Moved my car to a different spot just in case.

Stay safe everyone!

Every fn'ing year it's windy. Every fn'ing year the power is out. So annoying. Couldn't they have done preventative measures?

Great thing about the wind is how beautifully blue the sky is

Having underground power lines will solve the problem.

Absolutely everywhere all the way to the substation, perhaps. My neighbourhood has underground power lines but my power has been out since 1PM. Has to connect somewhere above ground..

White Rock pier split in half. Someone just sent me a pic. Will try to post but have no power.

White Rock pier was smashed by boats and there is now a person trapped on the wrong side of the pier.

Looking at BCHydro, so many outages everywhere.

punkwax 12-20-2018 02:03 PM

^ apparently someone is being rescued from the pier right now stuck on the other side.

Edit: ninja’d

Nlkko 12-20-2018 02:24 PM

Damn. Guy must be shitting bricks giving how windy and cold it is.

ImportPsycho 12-20-2018 02:29 PM

I must ask..
What the hell are you doing out there in this weather?

cafe22 12-20-2018 02:36 PM
