So during our windstorm (where 1.5 million people lost power) it got pretty darn windy throughout Western Washington. The list below is a list taken from komonews' website with the records of how windy it got! Note that some speeds were before the power went out, which means that it got even windier! I wouldn't wanted to have been up on Chinook Pass where it got up to 113 MPH....that is strong enough to flatten me on my butt!
