What is the windiest day in the Sherman Adams Building?
On December 4, 1980, just after moving in to the new building, the Observatory recorded a peak gust of wind of 178 miles per hour. The gust has yet to be topped in the “new” building. Also worthy of mention was our windiest summer day ever, July 20, 1996, when the wind averaged 100 miles per hour for the entire day, and gusted to 153 miles per hour.
