Today I noticed that it was a bit on the windy side and then I saw a news report that there are gusts up to 109kph (68mph). It’s not quite hurricane, needs to be sustained at 119kph, but it is enough to count as a tropical storm… the thing is, there’s no storm, it’s a windy day in Wellington. The bird feeder and some other things on our porch have been knocked over today, but on the whole everything is designed to withstand the winds.
It’s apparently the windiest city in the world… https://www.surfertoday.com/windsurfing/welcome-to-wellington-the-windiest-city-in-the-world
