Reductions in visibility associated with blowing dust, where present, will exacerbate already difficult travel conditions. Wind of this magnitude may also down trees, power lines, and damage property. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...As of 915 PM MDT, sustained winds at 41 mph and gusts up to 59 mph have been observed in Goodland, KS. The automated surface observing site in Burlington, CO has observed sustained winds at 40 mph and gusts up to 53 mph. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... If you are driving, watch for objects blowing across the roadway and into your path. Keep a safe distance from cars in adjacent lanes as strong gusts could suddenly push a vehicle outside its lane of travel. Take extra care in high-profile vehicles such as a truck, van, or SUV, or when towing a trailer, as these are more prone to be pushed or even flipped by high winds. && $$ Vincent
