What would be maximum winds to pull 35 foot rig with 2500 Chev duramx? Winds look to be 20 to 30 on Monday.

If I know it is going to be windy I like to travel with lot of liquid in the holding tanks. Low weight does wonders
On the news you hear of semi's being blown over on I-70 every once in a while. Nebraska is the windiest state followed by Kansas.
The only time I've had the carp scared out of me was in Wyoming on I-80. I got hit by a very strong crosswind that took the trailer and truck as one unit into the next lane and their wasn't a thing I could do about it, luckily no one was in that lane.
