(KCEN) -- Temple police are warning drivers to use caution after part of a mobile home flipped off a trailer and blocked lanes of I-35 southbound.

The accident happened around mile marker 305 on the highway. The driver said a gust of wind hit the trailer, which was carrying half of a double-wide mobile home, and caused the home to come off the trailer and land on the highway.

The southbound lanes of the highway are being closed at exit 305 and traffic is being diverted onto the service road.

Officers say if you are driving on the road, use caution and watch for changes in traffic conditions.
