Are the two different wind speed numbers for the sustained winds (lower) and the higher number for gusts?

The upper number is current wind speed; the lower is maximum recorded since reset; notice the little green marker. Sort of like a tachometer that shows current and highest rpm.

If the wind was going up hill you wouldn't need a chairlift!

Hope it doesn't get worse for you Lynne.

Back to snow in town today. A good day to sit it out.

When 2019 started, California's snowpack was at 67%. Now it's at over 136% and rising.
