Wind at the Airfield

    To us it seems that one of the windiest places in the Robson Valley is the McBride Airfield.  For a change, we decided to do our afternoon walk there yesterday, and even though it wasn’t that windy at home when we left, when we got to the airfield there was a very brisk wind blowing.  Not only were we treated to the buffeting winds, but also had to deal with the horizontal rain.

    You might suspect that it is a windy place by looking at the windsock with its ragged end, that has been battered into fringe by the constant wind.  Not only was the windsock horizontal, but also the wind generator, that was whirring and being given a workout.
