    The winds are at their strongest along the south facing ridges of the San Gabriel mtns or San Bernardino mtns . Where your Daughter lives she's on the North side of these mtn ranges such as myself

    Santa Ana winds generally blow from the North to NNE and are at their weakest along the North sides of these mtn ranges . I'm currently only seeing 9-12mph from the NNE and I believe the Lancaster /Palmdale area seeing the same wind speed

    Last I checked, the wind here is only getting up to about 20 mph and dies off Thursday night. But it's not constant. It's been dropping down to about 5 mph, climbing during the day and falling back in the afternoons.

    I'd venture to say we'd have those stumps out between the morning coffee break and the noon whistle...
