Hell of a wind storm

Last night, the wind moved in and it was wild. There was rain too, but mostly really strong winds. It dropped from 55F to 20F overnight. During the night class, the rain was pounding on the wall in front of where I sit at my desk which was very disconcerting.
I had to get Mara up after class to take her out, but I read a book until one of the storm blobs has passed through and the rain mostly stopped before I took her out, that was around 9:30pm. Around 10:30, the wind picked back up and was whipping and I heard a tree go down. I wandered around outside this morning trying to find it, but either it was in the swamp or up the hill, so I'll need to go further to see if I can find it.
Around midnight and 2am I was woken up again by the winds gusting. Estimated to be 60mph here. The house felt like it was moving almost the wind was so strong. Even if the house didn't move, I could feel the power of the wind.
Wild. Despite the cold, there's no ice on the roads, I think the wind scoured it away. Still 20F with 4F wind chill today but 45F tomorrow and up to 60 by Tuesday.
