We've had some of the temperature swings here lately but nothing near that
drastic.  Like one day it might only get to 28F after a night around 10F,
then the next day it might be 35-40F after a night near 25F.  We are about
to get some days near 60F.  As you have noticed, the winds are always at
play while all of this is going on.

It sure sounds that way!  :)
