Wind

Hi All,

Our Friday drive to Rawlings, WY was uneventful but when we arrived the wind was 30 mph with gusts to 45.

We considered "turtleing up" where we keep our slide outs in to prevent the wind from damaging the slide awnings.

Once parked we realized the wind was on our nose and posed little risk to our awnings.

Today when we started out we saw signs warning of "Extreme Blowover Risk".

We checked the WYDOT web site and found this!!!
As if to reinforce the potential danger we spotted a blown over tractor trailer along the interstate.

We stopped east of Laramie for over an hour then checked the weather forecast and proceeded cautiously, prepared to pull over if needed.

Not much more drama, we arrived safely in Ogallala, NE.

Love,

Sandy & Carl
