The agency posted this statement on its website this morning:

A very windy day is on tap for much of southeast Wyoming and the western Nebraska Panhandle, with wind gusts 35-50 MPH common across the area. High Wind Warnings have been posted once again for the wind prone areas of southeast Wyoming, where wind gusts up to 65 MPH will be possible this afternoon and tonight. The highest potential for gusts in excess of 60 MPH is expected after 8 PM MST this evening. Expect hazardous travel for light and high profile vehicles, including campers and tractor trailers.
