Your wind advisory called for 30-40 mph gusts+ in the high deserts (including the Apple Valley and Hesperia areas.
Here are yesterday's peak wind gusts from Hesperia, Apple Valley, and vicinity (observations pulled from the MesoWest website).
Phelan: 19 mph
El Mirage: 23 mph
Lucerne: 21 mph
Means Lake: 26 mph
Victorville: 29 mph
Victorville FS: 30 mph
Hesperia: 26 mph
But again - you said specifically that a wind advisory was needed in Hesperia and Apple Valley. Clearly it wasn't. Explain to me how you did better?
