School bus gets rained on but does not get blown off the road

I am on my coffee break and kids are going home from school. The rain continues and there has still been little wind here to speak of. There have been strong winds, gusting up to 84 mph, on the Anchorage Hillside, Muldoon in east Anchorage and the places I mentioned earlier, plus Eagle River. This is not a scientific analysis, but I believe this is because of the way storms get funneled through all the mountains around here. West Anchorage hardly got any wind at all. Maybe the next storm will hit the mountains from a different angle roar into our neighborhood and threaten to take our roof off.
