     the winds were here some but nothing too major for us.   
   knocked some power out for about 90,000 people for our   
   power company, but they're down to about 20,000 this   
   morning.   
      
     nice sunny but breezy day today.  chances of rain   
   again tonight and later this week for several days.   
   pretty much a normal spring season so far, which is ok   
   with me.
