The highest sustained wind speed recorded in a tropical cyclone was 190 mph, which was measured in several storms including Hurricane Camille and Typhoon Tip. The highest gust recorded in a tropical cyclone was 253 mph on April 10, 1996 on Barrow Island off the coast of Australia.
The strongest measured wind speed was 217km/h. This was just before the anemometer ceased functioning, so it is possible that the strongest gusts were not recorded.
253 MPH on Barrow Island, Australia. It was during the passage of tropical cyclone Olivia on April 10, 1996.
North America does not have record of their highest wind speed available to the public. However, the highest wind speed ever recorded anywhere was during Tropical Storm Olivia in Australia. Top speeds reached 203 miles per hour.
96MPH recorded in Feb 2009.
The fastest wind on earth occur in tornadoes, which have been known to have wind speeds in excess of 300 mph (480 km/h), far faster than anything a hurricane can produce.
Yes: willy willy. That's a severe tropical cyclone. Correction: Contrary to popular belief, a willy-willy is not a severe tropical cyclone. A willy-willy is a small, harmless twister that does nothing more than collect dust and debris as it sweeps along. In the southern hemisphere, cyclones are known as cyclones. In the northern helishpere they are known as either hurricanes or, in parts of Asia, typhoons. Cyclone is the generic term for a severe tropical storm that can be categorised into varying degrees of destructiveness, according to the speed of the winds.
The highest sustained wind speed on record in a tropical cyclone came with Typhoon Haiyan in 2013 with peak sustained wind speeds of 195 mph.
To be considered a hurricane a tropical storm must produces sustained winds of at least 74 mph. The highest reliably recorded sustained winds in a tropical cyclone (hurricane or typhoon) were 195 mph. Gusts have been measured to 253 mph.

By measuring the sustained wind speed. If the wind speed of a tropical cyclone is anywhere in the range of 39 to 73 mph then it is a tropical storm. If the wind speed is 74 mph or greater then it is a hurricane.
A tornado and a tropical cyclone often have winds in the same range 0f 60-190 mph. However the highest tornadic winds can exceed 300 mph, much stronger than those of the strongest cyclones, which get up to about 190 mph.
signal number 1 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 36 hour with wind speed of 30 to 60 kilometers per hour. Signal 2 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 24 hour with wind speed 600to100 kilometres per hour. Signal 3 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 18 hours with a wind speed of 100 to 185 kilometers per hour. finally signal 4 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 12 hour with wind speed of more than 85 kilometers per hour.
During Cyclone Tracy, the wind speed device recorded up to about 217km/h before the building was blown away.
The source of the tropical cyclone is warm moist air and the lateral heat it contains so it brings a lot of heat especially when the host air descend in the eye / centre of the storm It form Cumulu nimbus clouds heavy rainfall and thunderstorm Wind speed is high
the highest recorded sneeze speed is 160 kilometres per hour
96MPH recorded in Feb 2009.
It reached around 190km/h at some point and was classified a category 5 tropical cyclone when it his Myanmar's division of Ayeyarwady by flowing through the Irrawaddy River.
