I changed the casters on all my eggs to silicone an put two locking ones on each egg that was in a nest.My XL just blew four feet across the deck. I guess I didn't lock the casters. Pretty damn windy here. Anyone else getting it?

Jesus LS, there was no profanity laced tirade so I'm going to assume it stayed upright. Nothing like that up north yet. But tons of rain turning to snow overnight.LBGE (2012), MiniMax (2014), and too many Eggcessories to list. - Sudbury, Ontario

I'll grab it if it lands here buddy but with this wind you may want to raise Canegger. Maybe that guy in the UK.Fred19Flintstone said:Yeah Steve. If you see my patio furniture, let me know.

No doubt. Same in Baltimore. Winter storm advisory for Wednesday calling for up to 6 inches at home.DMW said:Crazy windy here as well. But also crazy warm. Record highs for today were set at 72* and on Wednesday we are going to get accumulating snow. Weird stuff.

Hit 51 mph wind gusts here (80+ km/hr for the GWN conversion). Lots of limbs down but amazingly kept the power on (now likely jinxed).Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Heavy winds here as well. Record low Saturday night. High of 70 degrees today, with 6 inches of snow coming starting Tuesday night. Crazy weather.

We hit 100 km per hour a few times here too, crazy day! Not sure if any street lights are functional right now in the city of London or surrounding areas!

Crazy windy here too. I was using my tandoor for the second time, this thing performs as good, if not better, as egg in the high wind.canuckland

Point the intake of your tandoor into the wind and you should be able to smelt ore with it!
(Don't do that - it could go nuclear and crack the liner. That would make me very sad).

Could be worse LS - you could be in Buffalo,Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

@Little Steven, its good to hear that the BGE only skated and didn't get tipped. Not to wish you bad luck, but I hope the wind stays up there with you. I also hate when the power goes out. Most of the time it's only a few seconds to an hour. Every time it goes out I can't help but worry if it's going to be days. We lost power for 3 days once. Buried the contents of the freezer and refrigerator in a snow bank. We stayed warm and had food, but no running water. Life sucks without tech toys and water. Melting snow to flush the toilet is a tedious task.Steven

I have a generator. The 60 seconds was the genny kicking in and the internet reboot. I should have been more clear. We lost a freezer full of food once on an outage. That can sting. I assume you are on a well too. That was the biggest problem at our place.stemc33 said:@Little Steven, its good to hear that the BGE only skated and didn't get tipped.
