Sorry Carol- I apologize in advance for my incredible lack of ability to resist but: The wind was strong enough to blow a semi around and you were driving one of those Australian SUVs called a Super-Roo, towing a Fiberglass trailer and you hadn't noticed the wind?
methinks a bit more coffee may have been in order to acquire some alertness!
Actually a properly connected, mid sized SUV towing a somewhat aerodynamic trailer does very well resisting high winds/gusts.....
