Default Santa Anna winds in ONT!

Holy crap!! I have heard about them but never really seen what it was until tonight. I can honestly say that was intense! Winds were 050 at 35 gusting to 65 with 3 mile vis due to thick blowing sand when we came in. It took alot of planes a couple attempts to get in. Good times

This is just the beginning. I have seen big rigs on their sides on I15 from these winds. Be prepared its going to get interesting.
