Left the truck stop a half hour before sunrise this morning. Only a few sprinkles last night. No weather. Started off mostly clear but soon changed to overcast. After a while it became partly cloudy and VERY windy. It seems Kansas is having a difficult time trying to find a route for heavy trucks. My Kansas permit was voided so I was sent another one. This afternoon they voided that one too because they still had problems with the route. I had to stop at the Petro truck stop in Oak Grove, Missouri until they figured out which way they wanted me to go and resend another permit. I might have to wait for a new Missouri permit too because of where I am entering Kansas. Initially I was to go around the south side of Kansas City now I might be going around the north side. That might be changed. Don't know yet. When I stopped at Oak Grove and got out of the truck it was still VERY WINDY!! I looked up and saw the cold front over my head. Here it is.
Fortunately there was no rain. It all went north of here. That was a very good thing. But this truck is really rockin' from all this wind!!!!! We are under a tornado watch and a high wind warning. Wind is constant at 30 to 40 mph with gusts up to 60 mph!!
Permits didn't come in today so here I sit until they get here.
