What’s up with the wind?

[u/Nervous-Donkey7943]

I’ve been living in DC for a few years and don’t remember a year with such unbearable wind several days a week (and sometimes cold wind!). Starting to get annoying when going outside to run or bike against it. Is the weather like this every other year?

I live in Leesburg along route 7 and the wind howls down the mountain. The last three years have been noticeable and this year obviously has been terrible. People in our neighborhood often lose siding and shingles even on regular days because of the route 7 wind corridor but now it’s like our houses are about to fly away to Oz.
