wind right now at crissy

[Pablito]

So you need heat in the Valley and fog in the Bay to make wind? It's like 75 here this afternoon, and I'm sweating in shortsleeves. 75 is hot for February, but it only stays that temp for a few hours. We had frost this morning!

I guess I'll bring my 17 down to Berkeley tomorrow.
