siggy, after having been nearly blown off the bridge over the Ohio R. crossing from KY into Evansville, IN during a squall with 60+ crosswinds (on an expanded metal grating steel bridge deck!!!), I will concur one hundred percent. There were several instances where I was probably at a 30° lean, only to have the gust change, and flip me back over to the point where I was about 98% sure I was going to get to take swimming lessons, the hard way!
