Sustained winds of 74 MPH or faster.
There is no such thing as an F1 hurricane. F1 is a rating on the Fujita scale, which is used for tornadoes, not hurricanes. Hurricanes are rated on the Saffir-Simpson scale, which ranges from category 1 to category 5. The maximum wind speed for an F1 tornado is 112 mph (180 km/h). The maximum wind speed for a category 1 hurricane is 95 mph (153 km/h).
Wind speed is the speed at which air moves from one place to another. Wind speed is a critical factor in determining the intensity of a hurricane, as higher wind speeds are associated with more powerful and destructive storms. Hurricane categories are based on the maximum sustained wind speed of the storm.
Hurricane Andrew had peaks sustained winds of 175 miles per hour, which had weakened to 165 miles per hour by the time of landfall in Florida.
Hurricane Floyd reached maximum sustained winds of around 155 mph (250 km/h) near its peak intensity.
The size of a hurricane is not directly associated with its intensity. A hurricane's intensity is typically measured by its maximum sustained wind speed. A larger hurricane may cause more widespread damage due to its larger wind field.
The maximum wind speed of a category 2 hurricane is 110 mph.
Hurricane strength is usually determined by the maximum sustained wind speed of a hurricane. This is usually measured with an anemometer.
120mph
it was 150 mph
Hurricane Rita reached maximum sustained wind speeds of 180 mph when it was classified as a Category 5 hurricane.
Hurricanes are categorized based on maximum sustained wind speed.
A hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 120 mph would be a category 3.
Well, darling, Hurricane Noel was a Category 1 hurricane that hit the North Atlantic in 2007. At its peak, it had maximum sustained winds of around 80 mph. So, to answer your question, the speed of Hurricane Noel was around 80 mph. Hope that clears things up for you, honey.

Hurricane ratings are bases on maximum sustained wind speed. A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74-95 mph. A category 5 hurricane has winds over 156 mph.
