Only in Ohizo. Hot air blowing out of Columbus [or to be exact, a suburb of Columbus]. [:-^]
The HOT wind was last night. WE were at 54 deg at 10 pm and this morning, NORTH winds have us at 11 deg. Wind gust over 60 mph and wind at 40 mph.
Chief, you need to come back north and see the real winter.
Wow… I assume no one was hurt… Couldn’t find any images… booo.
This happend this morning, and it is about 1.5 hour drive west of Cleveland, so by the time they make the trip there and back, it might be on the noon news.
The winds must have been a lot higher then 50 MPH to blow a train off a bridge.

Here is a link to a different TV station and they have a short video of it
I’m sure a sneeze towards a Z scale train would do the same thing.
Or a vacuum cleaner… to quote spaceballs… “She’s gone from ‘suck’ to ‘blow’!”
lol
It was probably those MPC cars! [(-D] They’re really light.

Tom…It has been reported that Lake Erie rose 10 feet on the eastern end by Buffalo due to the winds. At Dunkirk, they recorded over 70mph wind gusts. Reminds of the blizzard of '78.
Yep, that was a blizzard to remember. Don’t want to live in Buffalo.
Yep Bukeye, The water rose 10 feet by Buffalo and drop 5 feet at Toledo! Here is the link

And yes I do remember both the storms, one in 1977 and the big one 1978. At the time, I was living on the east side of Chardon, Oh ( the snow capital of NE Ohio ) It took the National Guard to dig me out. I miss a week of work because of being snowed in.
