There was a weather advisory for the past two days in these parts that was for windy conditions that seemed to apply to pilots and sailors more than the rest of us. That was until I drove to get the pups some food yesterday, and encountered delays getting around as downed trees and such were cleared. Then I hit an area where the dying autumn leaves were falling like a blizzard from being blown across the road straight from the trees, and as I passed through, my car was pelted by acorns being carried by the wind that sounded like bullets. Wind warning indeed. Wow!
