WA High Winds are Blowing Tumbleweeds & More to Doorsteps!
The high winds in Washington are wreaking havoc in Tri-Cities. Yesterday there was a wind advisory for the area. Recent wind gusts of over 55 mph at times brought some of those large tumbleweeds to the doorsteps of some friends.

Justin Schescke reminds everyone who have trampolines to weight them down by whatever means you have. It still might not be enough.
Those high winds weren't quite finished on Tuesday. Trooper Chris Thorson with Washington State Patrol tweeted about an incident he experienced.
Please remember when transporting items in the back of a truck, to have them secured, otherwise you may lose that valuable load. Worse, someone could be injured.
While living in California, I experienced Santa Ana winds. They've got nothing on Tri-Cities winds.
