Due to the gusty winds here in Los Banos, I've been up for the past two hours.
The winds are strong enough to shake The Beast. That, along with the noise from the blowing trees, woke me up.
I am trying to decide whether to pack up (won't have much to pack up) and head on the road to L.A. or wait a few hours for the winds to die down (if they even do). Driving an RV through cross-winds is not fun and it can be dangerous. I've seen many big rigs toppled over through the years from strong wind gusts. It is easier to drive through windy conditions at slower speeds, but it takes longer to get out of windy areas.
I was also considering dumping out the holding tanks, but the extra weight from them would be helpful in fighting the winds. So I won't.
I'll wait for more sunlight to determine to wait it out a little bit or not.
