    Uh...you got that wrong, KSL is in Salt Lake City, Utah...not Los Angeles. The video talks about West Valley City, which is a suburb of Salt Lake City. Again, just to reiterate, this happened in Utah.

    @Bittles: Freaky winds are much more common in Utah than LA.


    There's probably some joke in there, but I just mean it in the meteorological sense.

    I'm reminded of something L.A. historian Mike Davis once wrote: In Los Angeles (and Southern California in general), "freak wind" is officialese for tornado.

    This sounds familiar. Were any little pigs living at this address?

    @Grey_Area: I think three, but two of them had houses under construction at the time and were moving out soon.
