Same big wind down here in Omaha. Been that way for about 2 weeks now. Yuck! We have developed a nice loop off of our MUP that goes through a park that has some trees and other wind breaks, so on a real gusty day like today we can do multiple loops and don't ride direct into the wind for too long... maybe no more than 2-3 miles at a time. We were grinding to get 10-11 mph on the upwind legs today but could easily have gone 20+ downwind, though we stayed around 17ish to enjoy it longer.
