I don’t think I have ever seen a Red Flag Warning in any area I have lived in (Pretty much middle of Texas, north to south). But the wind is really howling this evening.
When the winds first turned around 1:00, they were 32 mph, gusting to 44 mph. Now they have settled down to 25 mph, and gusting to 38 mph. (just in case you noticed the “low humidity” part of the warning, here’s more info: dewpoint at about 1:00 = 66, dewpoint now = 28).
