I was watching The Weather Channel this morning and they were talking about a microburst, rain curtain, the wind and other things related to weather.
A microburst is a small scale exceptional really intense localized column of sinking air that results in a violent outburst of air at the ground. It is capable of producing damaging straight-line winds of more than 100 mph similar to some twin needles but without the spinning. There are two types of microbrews a wet one and a dry one. This definition came from on-line.
In 2012, we were in a wet microbursts in North Carolina on our way to visit my friend Vanessa in Fayettesville. we got really soak.
Our wettest today was in Albuquerque, Texas. We pulled under a bridge after seeing all the rain that was ahead of us and stay there for nearly 40 minutes. While under the bridge, a rainbow appeared and then another rainbow appeared on top of the first one. It was spectacular. At the end of the rainbow, we did not see a pot of gold. What we did see were the cars driving right through the colors. It was a sight to see.
On This trip we rode through very strong wind corridors, especially in the state of Washington
