Re: High winds - Hurricane Jeanne

John,

I can't speak for the dully, but my long tall Forest River motorhome
sprinter was driven, on the interstate in Florida during hurricane
Jeane, for over an hour. The reported winds were 85 to 115 MPH. I was
driving south (180 degrees) and the winds were from the east-south
east (110 degrees) Not a complete crosswind, but very close. It blew
me around big time, and is not something I would care to do again,
but I made it without blowing over. I passed dozens of semi truck &
trailers, that had blown over.

I trusted the weather report and though I was missing it. It will not
happen again.
