Default Guess WHAT????!!!!

What I don't get is why people feel the need to lie about stuff like this.
It's so easy to check and it makes that person look like a loon.

14 kts? Certainly not steady at 17-20.

The Kings Point station (about 1.6 miles south of City and Hart Islands)
was reading 8-10, gusting to 12-13 much of the afternoon. However, between
3:30 and 6, there were some stronger gusts, as strong as 16 and 17 knots.
The steady wind was not over 11 knots after 3:42.

This is from a NOAA station that records every 6 minutes.
