What the National Weather Service wrote

Utah DOT reported that a semi truck was blown over on I-80 near mile post 77 along I-80, most likely as a result of outflow winds associated with an area of showers and thunderstorms moving through the area.

The wider storm

A grazing shortwave trough north of Utah sent a cold front into the region. Ahead of and along this boundary there was enough moisture to result in isolated to scattered convective development, with much of this activity higher based in nature. As a result, numerous strong to severe wind gusts were recorded or reported. Additionally, a period of strong winds downsloping off of terrain was noted in portions of northwest Utah following the passage of the frontal boundary.

Began near Timpie (40.7400, -112.6400).
