First relax, a loaded 45'DP is not going to turn over in a 50 mph cross wind... it weighs too much. The trucks you see on their sides are empty and a FW camper is much lighter than a DP but it has much the same sail area and a higher center of gravity. When you have more than 45 degrees of steering input to keep it going straight, it's time to find a parking place. Yes, I've traveled with that much steering input from straight but I did not pull over. In another 10 miles it was going to be a tail wind.
My CB has weather channels on it so I can listen to local forecasts and advisories for the area I'm in. Last summer I was able to shoot the smal gap between two hot, black thunder storms areas on either side of I-80 using this phone
app instead of pulling over early and hunkering down to let the storms pass over me. I also use it as a navigation help as the sat base map is that good and it shows my movement. Worth the small onetime cost to purchase.
I use this
NOAA site for weather info reported from airports. I also use it to find small airports where I'll "tie down" instead of using a WalMart. Usually gets a laugh when I ask "how much to tie down" followed by "I did not hear you land" and I've never been charged. Should have taken a video of the DHL employees catching most of the packages thrown from the airplane.
