Windy weather in Fraser
By Norma Brand
Fraser and the surrounding area experienced high winds on Saturday night and all day Sunday. The strong winds came out of the northeast. The soil from the newly tilled fields was picked up and whirled into the air, dust devils or whirlwinds were seen dancing everywhere. Sunday night the winds calmed down and Monday turned into a beautiful autumn day. Take time to enjoy these days, winter is on its way!
