No, not a normal house.
At peak intensity, Hurricane Katrina had sustained winds of 175 mph. When it came ashore in Louisiana and Mississippi, the winds were down to about 125 mph (Category 3). Katrina set records for storm strength in the Gulf of Mexico, but most of these were topped by Hurricanes Rita and Wilma later that same year (2005).
Prevailing wind from the SE is the SE Trade winds. They blow in the southern hemisphere at latitudes 10 - 15 degrees S. The countries affected are Brazi;, Mozambique, and Australia. Unlike Westerly winds , they blow steadily at about 20 mph, and do not 'gust'.
The wind speeds in a hurricane can vary, but typically range from 74 mph (119 km/h) for a Category 1 hurricane to over 157 mph (252 km/h) for a Category 5 hurricane. The strongest hurricanes can have wind speeds exceeding 200 mph (320 km/h).
If you mean Katrina peak winds were 175 mph. If you mean Katia peak winds were 135 mph.
No, tornadoes can produce winds faster than in any hurricane. There is actually a substantial amount of overlap between hurricane and tornado winds. Winds for an EF0 tornado start at 65 mph and winds in the strongest tornadoes have been recorded at 302 mph. Hurricane force winds start at 74 mph. Hurricanes have had sustained winds as fast as 190 mph with gusts recorded up to 253 mph.
A little ove 750 mph that is
Yes, trees can be knocked down by 50 mph winds.
no... just just no. it almoast can but no
Yes, 40 mph winds can potentially knock down trees, especially if the trees are weakened or have shallow roots.
Yes, trees can be knocked down by 20 mph winds, especially if the tree is already weakened or if the soil is saturated.
If sustained winds reach or exceed 39 mph, a tropical depression becomes a tropical storm.
From what I have seen on the internet, the winds were about 135-140 mph at their fastest.
It is possible for a house to sustain damage if winds reach 70 mph, especially if it is not properly built or reinforced to withstand high winds. Factors such as the design of the house, surrounding structures, and local building codes can all play a role in determining the extent of potential damage.
It depends on the quality of construction of the house. Based on the wind speed estimates of the Enhanced Fujita scale, a tornado with peak winds of about 150 mph or higher would cause most houses to collapse.
Yes, 30 mph winds can cause significant damage, such as knocking down trees, power lines, and causing structural damage to buildings.
Yes, 40 mph winds can cause significant damage, such as knocking down trees, power lines, and causing structural damage to buildings.
