The former via puzzle_, the latter via snarlish

Reposted to my LJ. That bus stop does take a beating from the wind. It gusts down between the buildings. I never through it would actually get blown over.

Needs more trampoline...

Seriously though, definitely not a day to be wandering the streets

As my friend who lives in Dundee remarked in a text message to me, "It is a wee bit windy outside".

Sounds like the understatement of the year, right there.

is that a plastic bin or metal?

[andrewducker]

Metal body, plastic lid, I think. They're not _that_ heavy, but reasonably so.

It was quite warm and fairly still when I left to go to work, and a bit rainy but not very breezy when I came home. For all I know, these tales of high winds are an elaborate hoax being played on me Truman Show style.

Wow. We had a major windstorm in Portland a bit more than a decade ago, but it wasn't that bad.
