ROFL - don't know about your state but it actually IS possible here.....we have mountains with canyons on one side of the city and volcanoes on the other so depending on the wind direction, it can hit one of those barriers and cause "canyon winds" and we can have headwinds from all 4 directions. Course, it makes for some Awesome hot air ballooning!
