After the last round of strong winds which overturned a lot of vehicles around the country; it occurred to me that I don't really know just how windy it needs to be before a prudent motorhomer decides to not travel.
As a sailor, I have a pretty good feel for when to reef, and when to batten down the hatches, or even stay in harbour. I don't have that knowledge, however, when it comes to assessing when it isn't safe to drive my van around. We're planning our first outing this year in just over a week's time, and I believe we're forecast some pretty stormy weather, so I need to know!
Any tips, ideas or thoughts on how to decide?
