= Gale = A gale is a very strong wind. There are conflicting definitions of how strong. The U.S. Government's National Weather Service defines a gale as 34 to 47 knots (63 km/h to 87 km/h or 39 miles per hour to 54 miles per hour) of sustained surface winds.[1] Forecasters typically issue gale warnings when winds of this strength are expected. Other sources use minimums as low as 28 knots (52 km/h) and maximums as high as 90 knots (170 km/h). The 90-knot (170 km/h) definition is very non-standard. A common alternative definition of the maximum is 55 knots (102 km/h).[2].

How many points are there on the Beaufort scale for measuring wind force?
AnswerThe Beaufort scale is an empiricalEmpirical The word empirical denotes information gained by means of observation, experience, or experiment, as opposed to theory. A central concept in science and the scientific method is that all evidence must be empirical, or empirically based, that is, dependent on evidence or Logical consequence that are observable by the senses....measure for describing windWIND The Global Geospace Science WIND satellite is a NASA science spacecraft launched at 04:31:00 EST on November 1, 1994 from launch pad 17B at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Merritt_Island%2C_Florida, Florida aboard a McDonnell Douglas Delta II 7925-10 rocket....speedWind speed Wind speed is the speed of wind, the movement of air or other gases in an atmosphere.

HOW MANY names are made for hurricanes in a year?
Depending where they occur in the world they are called either Hurricanes or Typhoons. The scale below applies to both. Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale / Hurricane Catagories 1) 65 to 83 knots; 74 to 95 mph; 119 to 153 kph; > 980 mb 2) 84 to 95 knots; 96 to 110 mph; 154 to 177 kph; 980 - 965 mb 3) 96 to 113 knots; 111 to 130 mph; 178 to 209 kph; 964 - 945 mb 4) 114 to 134 knots; 131 to 155 mph; 210 to 249 kph; 944- 920 mb 5) 135+ knots; 155+ mph; 249+ kph; < 920 mb
