It is incredibly windy right now in central Nebraska along I-80.

Multiple semis have overturned in the wind and blowing dust is causing visibility issues in some areas.

Good idea to find a safe place to park for a bit if you're in a high profile vehicle. pic.twitter.com/N4wXkSJEsf

Troopers are dealing with several blowovers and limited visibility. This is near mile marker 279 east of Kearney due to a sand pile. For safety reasons, do NOT park on the shoulder of I-80. pic.twitter.com/P7xbWcP3Mu

Current view from the dash of one of our Troopers just east of Kearney.

Troopers are working to get vehicles that are currently parked on I-80 to the nearest exit for a safe place to stop.

For safety reasons, don't park on the shoulder of I-80.#DustStorm #Nebraska pic.twitter.com/CPjipcN90T

You're riding with a trooper into the dust storm earlier today near Kearney, as troopers worked to get parked vehicles off the shoulder and to the nearest exit for a safe place to stop.

It's still windy across the state, but hopefully those winds will dissipate tonight.#BeSafe pic.twitter.com/OYCE8le9UY
