While they are not considered storms in and of itself, microbursts can produce very localized wind damage. A microburst is a powerful downward rush of air that can occur during a severe thunderstorm. When a microburst reaches the ground it spreads out, producinng powerful winds that radiate outward. In rare cases winds may gust to 150 mph.
