BOMBO WHAT?

 IT'S BOMBOGENESIS...OR BOMB CYCLONE...when the barometer drops dramatically in a short period of time, creating a low pressure system with hurricane force winds. 106 mph at the Oregon coast, and 58 mph here in the Rogue Valley. Our neighbor's side fence that borders our long uphill driveway to the street was a victim. Our newly constructed fence (our side fence, their back fence, seen here from their backyard (the natural wood fence) did fine. No issues. Our house is fine (the snow covered roof beyond the wood fence.)

 Had we not replaced their back fence (our side fence) this fall, it would surely be down, just like this one.  That section toward the camera is laying right in our gravel driveway going up to the street. You can see many more leaning sections of fence. 

 We're not even sure that they realize the fence is down. They may have left for work this morning in the dark and not even seen it! I'm sure that the deer will see it and take advantage of some new area to browse!  

Happily, our fence (our side of their back fence shown here in the fall) is well made and can withstand gale force winds.
