Well for sure they don't let the kids out for recess when it's blowing like that. When we lived in Boulder, the wind blew so hard one day that it actually flattened a house several blocks away. Traffic lights were a real danger, as were flying trash cans which tend to do a serious number on anything they hit at 70 mph plus. The first time that a chinook hit the side of our house, we checked to see if a truck had run off the road.
