It's been really windy here most of the day. Gusts keep buffeting our apartment and you can almost feel it swaying (we're upstairs) as the trees outside bend this way and that like they're about to break. The streets are littered with branches, the power went out once, and rain spatters your face with fury if you venture outside.
I took my wife to work just a moment ago (and threatened to make her walk home tonight, because I'm a butthead). As I was pulling away, an older gentleman probably in his late 40s or maybe early 50s was walking slowly across my path, not particularly giving a shit that he was making everyone wait for no apparent reason other than that he felt the urge to walk abnormally slow.
As he walked, the wind caught his windbreaker and blew down his hood. A few steps later, it caught the front of the baseball cap he'd been wearing and tossed it up into the air, then carried it away several yards before depositing it on the asphalt.
I found it rather amusing.

EDIT - Oh wait, 40's-50's? Hahaha, yeah then he was just a dick.

Like... the wind is so bad, that even if the temperature isn't that cold out, the wind'll make up for it. I couldn't feel my face for fifteen minutes after I got back inside (I had gone out for a bit to do school project). Also, it snowed yesterday... then it sleeted. Then it warmed up today and melted all the snow, but it was raining... and the wind was cold. >.>

It finally stopped yesterday night.
It's also cold as hell here. =[

Windy, cold, wet, and miserable about sums it up.

In other news, the power just came back on after being out for 10 minutes. I'm sure lines got blown down somewhere or a tree got blown down and fell across them. I'm actually surprised it didn't take longer to get back in shape!

That could be the greatest pick-up line I have ever heard.
