    Gusts to 60 mph - Clipper to produce gusty cross-winds

Gusts to 60 mph
Clipper to produce gusty cross-winds

Gusty cross-winds could cause travel issues today, especially for high-profile vehicles.
Gusty cross-winds could cause travel issues today, especially for high-profile vehicles.

A clipper system moving across the northern tier isn't only sending rain and snow through the Plains and Midwest, but also gusty winds topping 60 mph for some.

The WindRadar clearly shows the low-pressure system and its accompanying cold front moving across the northern tier today. Wednesday morning gusts are already in the 50 to 60 mph range in the northern High Plains.

Travelers, especially those going along Interstate 94 and southward in North Dakota through western Nebraska and along Interstate 35 in Iowa, will encounter dangerous cross-winds up to 60 mph. This is already on top of sustained winds of at least 20 mph.

Winds will subside through the night as the low pressure shifts east, with the cold front triggering rain and some stormy weather through the late-afternoon and overnight hours.

Watch the WindRadar if you will be on the roads, especially if you drive a high-profile vehicle.

Super Typhoon Bavi threatens Taiwan. 155 mph winds. . Weather Videos. Wednesday, July 8, 2026
The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
