We had 35 - 40 mph crosswinds coming up I-16 from Savannah. It's not that the trailer would sway in the typical dog tail wagging, it's just the entire settup could be blown into the next lane. No fishtail, no wag, just this giant hand pushing you over the white line. Both hands on the wheel, and paying 110% attention to where we were at in the road.

I noted the 18 wheelers were a bit wobbly too.
