A tropical storm must attain sustained winds of at least 74 mph in order to be considered a hurricane.
Wind speed in a hurricane can be measured using an anemomenter or, in some cases, with Doppler radar. Often, however, it is estimated based on satellite imagery of the cloud tops.
it must be 74 mph or higher
They use a device called an anemometer.
75mphOnce a tropical storm has a wind speed of 74 mph it is officially a hurricane so 74 is the lowest wind speed for a hurricane.
The minimum wind speed for a storm to be considered a hurricane is 74 mph.

The wind speed is 74-95 mph in a category one hurricane.
The minimum wind speed for a storm to be considered a hurricane is 74 mph.
The maximum wind speed of a category 2 hurricane is 110 mph.
Wind speed is the speed that wind moves at. It relates to hurricanes in that a tropical storm does not become a hurricane until sustained winds reach 74 miles per hour or faster.
