I don’t mean to belitle the problems this storm has caused, but 30 to 40 mph winds?

We get that everytime there’s a fast moving thunderstorm going throught the area. 60 mph gusts happen realitively frequently.

What am I missing here that makes this exceptional?

Rain soaked ground. 30 to 40 mph sustained wind will take a tree over. And has.

You are forgetting the Billions that the politicians from that area are trying to get from Obozo!

My thoughts as well. We have many 60 mph+ winds here out in the rural West. Never makes the nighttime news.
