:runaway: it's supposed to hit 50-60mph tonight

I have a 12:30 flight tomorrow, it better be less windy by then

That didn't really answer why parking into the wind is a problem

When it's super rough ridin' windy you are supposed to park into the wind, lest you risk losing hold of your door and letting it fly into your colleague's car (Mazda 626) and then you have to tell them and call your insurance and tell them you're an idiot.  So parking into the wind is fine, but being in a situation where one cannot park into the wind is a problem, but only if it's really windy out.  See?

I think maybe this is a problem for people that weigh under 120lbs and can't control a car door.  Interesting problem nonetheless.

Perhaps this is related to front facing parking? AJ, thoughts?

True story:

In college with a buddy and we are out tailgating at BSFS....and like BSFS always is, it's windy.  I'm cursing the wind and my buddy says

"Weird it's so windy out here, there aren't even any trees around"

I ask him again, yup...no trees, why is it windy?  He proceeds to tell the group that wind comes from trees.  :ROFL:

My least favorite element. It makes otherwise good weather unenjoyable and bad weather exponentially more miserable.

Blowing like hell in western Kansas.  Makes me remember one of my first farm life lessons dad taught  me - don't whiz into a stiff wind.

Left a patio umbrella out and it broke it in half. I was pretty impressed
