Starting Tuesday, Wyoming has been blasted by winds that are high even for a region known for its powerful gusts. Winds in the 60 to 70 mph range have been reported around the state, with gust reaching 100 mph in some instances. That windy weather has resulted in a string of crashes where gusts toppled high-profile vehicles like semi-trucks. As of Thursday afternoon, according to the Department of Transportation, the state had recorded: seven blow-over crashes in Laramie County; six blow-over crashes in Albany County; three blow-over crashes in Carbon County; and two blow-over crashes in the Wheatland area. High winds were recorded across the state. On Wednesday, the National Weather Service recorded a wind gust of 105 mph near Cheyenne and a 101 mph wind gust near Atlantic City. For comparison, a category 2 hurricane has sustained winds in excess of 96 mph.

I pulled up on a recent semi rollover many years ago in Wyoming and helped the trucker with clean up. ( It was futile) All produce, I left with as many boxes of jalapenos as I could carry.

Goes on until tomorrow afternoon according to the NWS. It feels like it has dropped a bit since three or four hours ago but it is hard to walk anywhere without getting moved sideways.
