Santa Ana’s or just a storm?

My Buddy called me yesterday said it was the worst he had seen in Ontario 909. He was at Family RV to pick up one of his rentals and said one almost blew into the other sitting there. There was no wind here when he called.

Not sure when it happened. Already fenced and being dismantled/fixed.

Santa Anas were blowing when I was down there yesterday.

They are replacing the tanks, and updating the pump area, didn't look like this before, so either it was the wind or someone "F"ed up and knocked it over

Drove home to CA in it. Every trailer was crabbing behind their tow vehicles.

Getting gas under one of those canopies in Seattle when I noticed the water in a 5 gallon bucket sloshing side to side, how strange?
Looked up and the canopy above me was swaying, first and only earthquake I've ever experienced, the guy next to me followed my eyes then we raced each other to the open parking lot, that was a trip.

Wind has not been bad enough. i think it has something to do with the construction they got going on.

I live in eastvale the last 2 days have been pretty bad. Blew my heavy patio furniture clear across the back yard. I’ll be going to check my motorhome tomorrow.

I wonder if they were digging for repipe and did a little much around the footers?

Glad I thinned out all my trees a couple weeks ago. Had one fall on my house last year.

It was just a super windy day, crazy weather. Not a construction issue buddy spoke with the crew right after we saw it.

Seems odd, im down the street and the wind has only been 30ish. We get 60mph around here all the time. If i was the construction crew id blame it on the wind as well.

Kinda looks like the wind sucked the sand from under the right side.

That day down the wind gusts seemed to be extremely high for a short a while during that day, I think they were as high as 65/70. But your point may be true as well.

We get calls for sliding gates blown over or folded like a taco in these winds. Commercial construction in the IE

 

[bentprops]

Does this look like wind damage? Sheared it right off?

 

[Big B Hova]

I saw it on Monday before and after it happened. I wouldn't think it was Intentionally knocked half way over for construction

Windmills are located out there for a reason.
It was really blowing hard here in Spangler, and westerlies kicking up again now.
