I live here in Wyoming where 30 mph winds are just considered a light breeze, especially during the winter months. I have driven with my camper on in a lot higher wind speeds and never was worried about being blown over. In my experience, the winds are not a big issue hauling a truck camper, but your gas mileage will take a hug hit!
To the OP, on my first trip with my camper I was driving home with a near 50 mph crosswind (South Dakota, not Wyoming). It never made me fear tipping over but it was a lot of work keeping it in the lane. After a few hours of this I decided to find a place to pull over and ride it out.
