Then you also have the day vs night weather patterns, resulting in intense sun-downer winds. I suggest everyone actually visit a real desert once in their life, where as people seem to think its like a beach, but bigger.

Around Elephant Butte Lake which is quite close to WSMR [1], I remember those really strong winds around sunset.
