Dixon Patch Viewfinder: Old Man Wind Blew Hard on Tuesday

On Tuesday, the predictions were for sustained winds of 20 to 30 miles per hour, with gusts as high as 45-50 miles per hour. The wind farms south of town must've generated a lot of electricity for PG&E. 

A walk around Dixon Tuesday morning revealed the effects of the strong winds. Most revealing was a heavy Recology plastic trash cart which was blown down Pembroke Way for two blocks. Check out the photos to see Dixon fared.
