wind

Yes Texas is no stranger to intense winds, especially this city.

Windy season is typically is at its worst in March and April, but it can rear its ugly head in The Borderland at just about any month. When the winds get cranking here in El Paso, they scream. And if we haven't seen much rain before a windy day, El Paso turns into a brown, dusty apocalypse.

There is a high-wind warning today in El Paso with possible gusts up to SEVENTY miles per hour.

The National Weather Service of El Paso recently tweeted out warning people in the borderland that Wednesday will be “CRAZY in the Borderland…. With VERY strong winds, blowing dust, mountain snow, lowland rain.”

While looking for some pictures of the West Texas wind, I came across an old post I did. I added a few more and put them on wonderful photo backgrounds from my friends. A Haiku is a simple poem with five syllables, followed by seven syllables and capped with another five syllables...

According to the National Weather Service, chances for showers are on the increase for the start of this week.

CHRISTMAS IS COMING!!! And apparently Mother Nature got the memo and decided to grace the borderland with winter-like weather a day AFTER the official start of the Winter season (December 21st) but hey, it’s just in time for Christmas so we will take it.

The Greater El Paso Landfill and the Citizen Collection Stations closed early on Wednesday afternoon to ensure the safety of the public and employees because of the persistent high winds and low visibility.

It happened in Wyoming, but anyone from the Borderland knows it could easily happen here, too.
