You shouldn't need an app on your phone to have to tell you it's gonna be windy in Wyoming...

The wyoroad.info website also has a overview map that is pretty good at calling out potential wind issues.

You can go through eastern Wyoming, Scottsbluff, and down to I-76 or wherever you're going to stay away from the mountains. Better than sitting for two days waiting for the wind to stop. That isn't possible from where you're at unless you can make it down to Douglas then US-18.
The worst winds are usually between Wheatland and Cheyenne. The winds can die down after sunset so keep an eye on the weather stations wind speeds on the Wyoming 511 app.Qbf594 Thanks this. -
So about the Wy511 app...
When it says High weather Impact ... Is that like "you will experience exhausting high alert driving"
Or is that like "if you choose to proceed you are likely an idiot"
I am less of an idiot that many about driving in snow. Born in Oswego NY, I learned to drive in New England and have lived on the side of the Adirondacks for over 10 Years. Snow doesn't scare me. Ice and wind do tho...
Leaving Ft Collins for Tacoma this afternoon...homeskillet and Numb Thank this.
