Default Wind!!!

The freakin wind/sand storm as been blowing like a mothafawker all damm day yesterday as well as all nite long. Pretty much broke trees all up & down my street not to mention broke the trees in my yard landing on my truck (good excuse not to go to work) the creramic shingles off my roof broke off as well!!!. Winds were at least blowing 70mph or higher.

**** in Simi Valley it seriously looks like a WAR Zone. **** everywhere, mountains of fallen trees and branches, Trash cans, fallen signs, smoke, grey/brown sky, raining ashes, and a HEAVY, HEAVY wind!! My chicks windows sound like they are going to implode every few seconds. The damned cars are being pushed into other lanes on the freeway. It's just plain stupid out there.
Looks like the place was nuked.
