One photo a day challenge (61/365) all year long

Today was a very windy day and it is still windy right now.
It all started yesterday around 4pm when a patient told me it was going to be very windy today per the news on TV. I was hoping it was exaggerated reports as there have been times when the weather forecasts was not quite as predicted.
So last night, when I got off, it was indeed so windy that when I was driving I felt the force of the wind pushing my car out of my lane on a number of occasions. When I finally arrived home I had to change my sleeping position from closer to the window. The thought of a tree falling through the window was all I needed to do a 180 lol. This morning I got up the same weather. A trees fell and there were branches all over.

There was also damages done to some building structures at work.
At one point today I considered sleeping at work but after talking to others I changed my mind. In the past, i have come very close to staying during bad weather conditions, but I always drove home despite the warnings.
On a lighter note, I got another guy on my job to sign up to Steemit today. I literally made him sign up while I watched.
So I gave him a general idea of how Steemit works and he was interested and he would sign up. So I asked him why not now? He wasn't doing anything at the time so he did sign up. His name is Antwan.
He loves photography, and also drawing...I will let him do the rest of his introduction.
So he should be starting in a couple of weeks.
I know others that I think I can convince to sign up.😊
That's it for today goodnight and I'll see you all tomorrow.

Is it still windy over there?

It wasn’t bad today.

Same here. Everything is back to normal.

Whao. that was a strong wind. I usually try to stay put in a safe place whenever it gets windy. Because you can never tell, what might drop off. Trees, roofings etc.

In btw, I saw this.

How did you notice that?
That was so nice of him to say.

I accidentally stumbled on the post. I guess you might not know if no one told you. I never thought of it as well.

Nice photography. And well-done about the sign up. Keep preaching the good news.

Thank you. I sure will. Steemit sell itself.

Interesting day @leggy23. Thanks for sharing your day and your concerns that you had a cause of the weather. I wonder if it's common where you live? ... On the other hand, is your friend Antwan sick or just a relative? because you say he wasn't doing anything at the time. That name has always called my attention, my daughter's name is Antonella.

Hi @cinefilo, no Antwan isn't sick. What I meant by he wasn't doing anything is he wasn't busy at that moment so he had time to sign up immediately.
I think Antonella is a pretty name.
This kind of weather is not that common here. We do have windy days from time to time but this one was quite strong. I think they said it was blowing as fast as 30 miles/hour.

I like the weather that you see where you are (temperature). Where I am from is very hot. The good thing is that I can go to the beach 365 days a year. Greetings and enjoy the weekend.

Lucky you. Where is that? The Caribbeans?

Yes, Venezuela Margarita island

You should share some pictures.
You know I wasn't sure margarita island was an actual place I thought it was a figure of speech.

Weather brings positive change very often but beware of bad weather an its effects. Beautiful pictures and nice work to introduce yet another guy this amazing platform steemit.

Its too amazing not to share.
