LMAO, useless in wind, useless in no wind, what is the point?

The one in flames I found particularly amusing.

That said, the gusts have been particularly fierce, going from nothing
to 80mph in half a second so I'm not surprised things are breaking.

Plenty of brownouts here as lines take hits and that's the effect of
distant ones as HV city feeds are underground for miles.
