Very weird how we get these intense 10 min periods of stronger winds then it backs way off for a bit then another round of big winds, almost gravity wavish...

Glad you mentioned it.
Weaker lapse rates at the low levels I believe contributed to the wave ducting and the "bursting" of higher and lower periods of winds.
 
@Shaggy (you flooding down that way yet?) Precip (In the bucket for Jan 9th since 12 AM yesterday..) 1/2 inch, or better,, cannot find exact reports..

nope a couple inches, I bet 133 is flooded..

Power flickered half dozen times, holding on for now amidst strongest winds of the day. I failed, got chairs all over the yard, grill blown over and limbs down. Continued flickers

We.just got rocked. Biggest winds I've seen in years. I'm a few miles southwest of the airport along the river.

These little straggler lines mean business. This is about the windiest it has been all day..pretty sure I just heard some of my drip guards get blown off the roof IMG_5989.jpeg
 
One last gust to 44 this morning with the showers that moved through. On my way into work this morning still saw some areas without power and a number of trees down in some yards here and there. Lots of broken pine limbs strewn about and oh the ground is like mush. Honestly amazed more trees didn't topple, no leaves probably really saved our buts

Yeah if this was April there would have been a lot more trees down...

Pines don't uproot they shed limbs and crowns.
