Thanks for the response. For responding so kindly to my silliness, I owe you.

New thread with neat pictures and info about DERECHOES.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2902613/posts
Seems they are fairly common, and something the public would be aware of.

This is the first time I have heard the term, so that thread was a great education.

Now I have to wonder just what else is there I don’t know.

Thanks for the link, that was interesting. I guess we don’t get Derechos here in the Sierra of Eastern California but we do get extremely high winds that seem to come out of nowhere. Last Winter strong hurricane force winds came through knocking down hundreds of huge lodgepole pine trees, winds were clocked at 90 mph with some gusts over 150 mph. The Forest Service is still trying to clean up the mess and clear trails of fallen trees.
