- How hard does the WIND blow? You may have heard that the Casper wind is the "fastest" in all of Wyoming! Actually other towns in Wyoming have faster wind speeds! Other cities across the US are way more windy as well. Watch to find out!

I'm from the Mississippi Gulf Coast and I can tell y'all about high winds being in many hurricanes. Hurricane Camille had winds sustained at 175 MPH. Yes, my house was destroyed. We rebuilt, and then Hurricane Katrina destroyed our house once again. I said the heck with that and moved to Colorado Springs. No hurricanes here. lol. My wife and I are really looking hard at Casper. I mean we are doing our due diligence right now. I hope T-Mobile Cell Service is good in Casper. Great video.
Sometimes wind is much better than dead calm. In Georgia we have some light wind in the winter time but usually summers - with 70+ dew point and 90+ temperature - are dead calm. You can feel yourself slowing cooking. A wind would be soo much relief. Wind is your friend.
No. In the winter it can kill.
I know...I lived in the Cheyenne area for over 21 years. The winds were a challenge but pros. I have now lived in MS for over 17 years. I would move back to WY like yesterday if the the wife would agree....I hate the heat, humidity and social issues and you can not see a dam thing due to all of the weeds and trees. Prices for homes in Wyoming have sky rocketed. At 70 years old moving back to WY would be a challenge but I would still rather be there then here. I revisited Cheyenne last Sept (2021) If it were only me I would have been back like yesterday. I do dislike the icy roads, ground blizzards but so much miss the fresh air and being able to see for 50 miles if not more.
I attended Casper College in 1973-'74 and loved the city but the wind was definitely intense some days. What I remember is that it was calm for the first 2.5 months I was there, but then the wind started to blow on November 1st. Once started, it blew steadily for 6 months, then, as if God turned off the wind switch, it quit blowing on May 1st, and everything was calm again until school ended and I left for the summer.
Very Windy in the High Desert in Southern California. The Solution is to get a windmill. You will Love the Wind. Enjoyed the Video thanks!!
That's a very interesting and fun idea! Are you suggesting as an off-grid power source?
If I remember correctly back in the late 80's or 90's the wind has been so bad on outer drive to blow over semi trucks.
My wife and I must have visited Casper at the worst time just before New Year’s Eve and the winds were 30 mph!
It looks chilly out there : )
The state of the wind is rough in Wyoming. My buddy lives outside of Cheyenne and he said 3 weeks ago they had 100mph winds whipping through. Crazy cold in the winter time.
It's brutal. no doubt
@@Cwilly13ify My buddy called me last night and he had 3 feet of snow and 5 foot drifts from this last big storm. Crazy
@@DavidBrown-jt7yi I'm here now and yeah that sounds about right. Most main roads are closed as are the stores. It's affordable and the culture is laid back, but not ideal if you like to be outside on a regular basis uninhibited
I'm finding your videos a great resource about moving to Wyoming, with a focus on Natrona County--thank you! Subscribed.
I was asked how windy it was in Wyoming. I tell folks that kids in that state fly kites with logging chains. Skinny people put large rocks in their pockets to keep from getting blown away. One day the wind stopped blowing in Wyoming, and everybody fell over.
Just kidding.....I lived in Saratoga as a kid in the 1960s, and it was the best time of my childhood. I miss that little town.....
🤣🤣🤣
I think about moving to Wyoming and wondered if the winds would knock me over. I'm on the small side and sometimes have to be careful in IL when there are strong winds. The wind just pushes me along. Once when I was on a bike the wind nearly knocked me over sideways. It can be dangerous for sure.
My family and I are planning on moving to Casper in 2021. Fingers crossed. Great video........
Look me up when you visit or move here!!! Thanks.
Watch out for Gothic Wizards.
Had 80 mph sustained in 1992, very rare
80 mph gusts a few weeks ago. It was crazy but it was a wind before the amazing calm!
Live in Northern Iowa winds at time get pretty rough
But the more I see you videos tempting to move
Have a great day
Better yet look at the Videos from the Winter of 2023, Higher Drifts than the house's in Casper. I 80 Shut down for Day's.
Thanks Alisha. If I can convince my wife we just might leave Michigan and head west to Wyoming! We will visit once or twice this year. I like Sundance and the black hills area. Do you have info on the Crook county area?
It is a gorgeous area. www.crookcounty.wy.gov/. I know an agent or two up that was and can put you in touch when you are ready.
It was 100mph the other day in Cheyenne
Jesus Christ...!
I think it was gusting high in Casper then as well!
All day ?
@@wil7228
It was for at least 4 hours, rest of the day 40-65 mph, which is the daily usual.
I live right outside of the windy city of Chicago and we do get strong winds here. Storms sometimes uproot trees, break large branches, knock over wooden fences. Probably not a whole lot different than parts of Wyoming.
That's true, our trees usually stay put but the wind will take down fences, blow semi's over, destroy signs and rearrange your patio for you. What really causes problems is when the wind causes huge snow drifts.
@@alishacollinsrealestate Your trees probably have stronger roots than IL trees from more regular strong winds. Really after a bad storm lots of trees and branches are down here and going to the woods afterwards can be pretty interesting. Sometimes people in Chicago are hurt or killed by falling trees. One tragic accident happened on a bike path when a couple were riding before a storm and a tree fell on the woman. Her partner was unable to lift the tree and she died.
@@annabelleb.8096 I think you are absolutely correct about the tree roots. What a tragic story :(
My husband and I are planning on moving to Casper as soon as he can put in a transfer at his work. The wind doesn't bother us much. We lived a while in Palmer, Alaska and had to just get used to high winds. The overall charm will make it worth it in the end.
Yes the charm is amazing! Look me up when you are heading this way!
Looks like that wind is kicking up right now.
I was laughing how the speed of the wind was different through the entire video. Not sure if anyone can tell but I was FREEZING!!! The wind was cold!
Planning on moving out to Wyoming in 2022.
Look me up!
Hey Alisha, first, thank you for sharing. I am by myself now and looking for a new start, so Wyoming is on my top two places to move too.
What about homes with real wood fireplaces?
What is the availability of heating wood and the cost of a cord of hardwood?
I have seen a few of your videos on Single Room homes and that is what I would be interested in, but I do not see any with real fireplaces.
Are there local ordinances that prohibit them in towns?
Yes many homes had wood stoves/fireplaces. They also can be added fairly easily. Here is the cord price if you cut it yourself! www.blm.gov/press-release/blm-issues-firewood-permits-muddy-mountain-area
@@alishacollinsrealestate thank you. Perhaps later this year or next I will head your way. Thank you again
I've been living in Florida for 10 years and I would die for a nice breeze during the summer. Ready to move to Wyoming because our 401k will not be taxed correct? Do you have any videos on retiring in Wyoming? Florida is too expensive and overcrowded, the heat is unbearable... I'm sick of it.
The Lord is sending the West wind to blow the coronavirus away
In Western Washington state
So,..are houses built different at all in cheyenne and casper? Or is it normal construction and you just hope for the best?
A lot depends on county and city code. I don’t know much about Cheyenne’s code but I would presume that it’s close to ours. I do think there’s specific code for snowload, insulation, roofing shingles and lots of other things. I don’t know every specific
@@alishacollinsrealestate ok thanks. Seems like you'd "beef up" your construction for areas like this.
Bruh. I’ve been hearing about how windy Wyoming is lately, meanwhile I live in the windiest state in the country apparently. Shits not that bad 99% of the time honestly
Alisha, ... I was thinking that if I moved to Casper, I would put up a bunch of wind generates (not the huge commercial type, ... but in a more rural area, that it wouldn't bug any neighbors), ... perhaps enough to power the majority of my electrical power needs, etc.
One of my biggest concerns. Wind...I was stationed in Oklahoma and in North TX, and the winds there are bad. Winds and tornadoes, so roofs go flying. Since Im into cars, and all that, I want to protect them, so my question is this. Are there special codes for building roofed structures like garages and warehouses and whatnot?
My ideal property is something with a big steel garage (think big enough to fit tractor trailers and buses, since I have a few of those in my collection...). Are the buildings built stronger? I know that my ideal for a house is more odd, since the "house" part can be the office of an out of business machine shop or factory lol, as long as it has the lifts, the pit, room for tool boxes and all lol.
Thanks, and I did subscribe.
I can’t tell you about the buildings but it’s definitely windy here but I’ve never seen roofs go flying and rarely tornadoes touch down
@@chrisdull84 When I visited it was fairly calm, but it was August, and not the spring. I was station in Oklahoma and its windy there, and LOTS of tornadoes. Every May...every year....
Will a soft top Jeep Wrangler survive the wind?
I see those do fine. Probably needs to be parked in the garage when not driving
How bad is the wind in Casper Wyo????? I'll tell ya first hand... I grew up in Casper Wyo.. I was in 5th grade and my mom took me to school one morning in the dead of winter.. She pulled up to the school and I opened the door on that 98 Oldsmobile and the goddamn wind snapped that door off and the fukin thing flew in mid air about 400 yards !! I swear
Oldsmobile doors weighed 300 lbs back then
Washington D.C.? I don't believe DC should even be on that list, having worked in DC for 17 years and lived in nearby Maryland for my entire life. You may want to consider other sources of information, Alisha. DC? No way! Of course, if you are counting the hot air blowing out of Capitol Hill....
Me thinks she is responsible for the slight breeze. In that part of Wyoming the wind force is measured by how far off center a vertical hanging 1”chain, 6’ long will be moved. It’s a breeze up to 45*, after that it’s wind.
No not air balloons i guess
Sometimes there are hot air balloons!
There's an all powerful warlock who controls those winds. Be careful of that one. TWU
I live in Dayton Ohio
Very helpful information.. the background music is too loud and makes it difficult to listen to the speaker.
the wind doesn't blow it sucks.
At least when you fart it will clear out faster.
Im from iraq
Hi Alisha, I enjoy your videos, but the background music is annoying. Thanks!
It's so windy because casper has a goth warlock that controls the weather twu
Praise Cobra’s Magic twu
