I don't have but one set rule when I'm on I81 at the Nc Va border at Fancey Gap and the sign says High Winds I pay VERY close attention. Tractor trailers are blown over a police officer was blown over the side of the mountain and I had an oak 2X10 sucked out of my truck while it was laying flat in the bed. Fancy Gap is a funnel from the Nc low lands to the Va high land. That increases wind velocity. In this case big time. It can be extremely dangerous or a very pretty ride. When the signs say high wind or fog ahead that is exactly what they mean. We live near Fancy Gap and it is a regular feature on the 6 o'clock news.
BE CAREFUL!!
