BIG WIND DAY!

   SATURDAY, APRIL 12, 2025

           BIG WIND DAY!

 If you're looking for something to

celebrate or observe today's unusual

"holiday' may be the answer. April

12th is "Big Wind Day!" It was on

April 12th of 1934 that the 

Observatory on top of Mount

Washington in New Hampshire

recorded a wind speed of 231

miles per hour! That's the highest

recorded wind speed in the

Northern or Western Hemisphere!

You can visit Mount Washington

by car or Cog Railroad throughout 

year and you're likely to experience

some strong wind gusts! Hopefully

not at record speed. If you can't get

to Mount Washington I'd suggest

a trip to visit the politicians in

Washington where you're likely

to note some strong winds (read

that 'hot air') most every day.

Hope your feet are planted

solidly on the ground and that

all your NEWS is good!
