Chart for monday the 29th

The winds I'm sure were stronger than that.

Note the station stopped recording (broken?) at 1pm. They probably saw
much higher wind speeds. Even up at Tupelo (substitute KTUP in above URL)
there was a gust of 53 mph recorded. Also try Birmingham BHM, which is
quite a ways to the east.
