You don't fuck around with Wyoming wind. It will win. Every single time.

From the post:

>With sustained winds reaching 60 mph and gusts hitting nearly 90 mph, Tuesday’s wild winds were some of the worst Wyomingites can recall in recent memory. That includes the Wyoming Department of Transportation, which reports at least nine semitrucks were blown over around the state, the most in a day in at least two decades. The Wyoming Highway Patrol responded to those blow-overs, and other wind-related calls. Winds were so strong — a gust of 88 mph was recorded near Bordeaux — that WYDOT closed Interstate 25 north of Cheyenne to all trucks, regardless of weight.

As much as I would love to move there for a lot of reasons, the wind and taxes will probably prevent me forever

I am not asking you to and rather suggest you don't.

WY has low taxes and no state or city tax. The wind on the other hand. It is something else if you don't know what you are getting into. It's year round and will drive you insane if you don't like it.

Really? I've read before that Wyoming taxes, car reg, utilities, etc. are all higher than national average. Interesting. Might need to keep that in mind. My son might be interested in moving there after he does his 20 years.

Local pay is lower, that is probably why the numbers look that way. Not having state income tax is nice though.

Oh, and an absolute crap load of USMIL SF people come out of WY. Hard places make hard people.
