Judith Basin County Sheriff's Office has been dealing with several blow-overs of campers and semis near Windham and Stanford. This is where winds have been gusting to nearly 80 mph.

These damaging wind gusts will continue for the next several hours, but a cold front will push south across the area later on this evening putting an end to the high winds.
