What was the strongest wind speed recorded for hurricane sandy?
Hurricane Sandy has peak sustained wind of 110 mph.
Does wind speed change with altitude in a hurricane?
Yes, wind speed in hurricanes typically increases with altitude. This increase in wind speed with altitude is known as the wind profile within the hurricane, with the strongest winds typically found at higher altitudes in the storm's structure.
What is the strongest wind at Mawson station in Antarctica?
Yes. Antarctic winds are katabatic, and fall from the polar plateau to sea level, pulled by gravity and cold air seeking its low level. Antarctica is the highest continent -- and the windiest content. There is no continent in the Arctic to produce such winds.
Which has higher wind speed hurricanes or tornadoes?
There is actually a good deal of overlap. The winds of most hurricanes and tornadoes and hurricanes fall into the same range. However, the strongest tornadoes have faster winds than the strongest hurricanes.
What do you call the strongest wind on earth?
tornado
Antarctica's average wind speed?
The average wind speed is over 70km per hour.
What is antarctica's lowest wind speed?
There are brief moments during the year when there is no wind.
What was the strongest wind speed in San Diego?
113 mph
What was the strongest wind speed recorded for hurricane sandy?
Hurricane Sandy has peak sustained wind of 110 mph.
Why is wind speed measured in antarctica?
To see how fast it is blowing you silly goose:)
Is a hurricane the most powerful natural disaster?
No. In terms of wind speed a tornado is the strongest. In terms of energy released and earthquake is the strongest.
Is Katrina the strongest storm?
No. It was the most destructive, but by no means the strongest. Other storms have been stronger in terms of both wind speed and barometric pressure.
Is their wind in Antarctica?
there is a bit of wind in Antarctica as it is a windy place.
What is the average wind speed of Antarctica?
Over the whole continent hard to tell but a wind turbine is being installed at Scott base (New Zealand) because it has an average wind speed of 29 km/h. Vostok station (Russia) has 18 km/h. Mawson Station (Australia) averages 67 km/h the windiest place on earth.
Does wind speed change with altitude in a hurricane?
Yes, wind speed in hurricanes typically increases with altitude. This increase in wind speed with altitude is known as the wind profile within the hurricane, with the strongest winds typically found at higher altitudes in the storm's structure.
What is the tempurater in Antarctica?
In the summer, Antarctica is approximately -60 degrees. In the winter, it's approximatlely -80 degrees. When there are blizzards, it gets a lot colder, depending on the speed of wind.
What can isobars tell you about wind speed?
Isobars, lines on a weather map connecting points of equal atmospheric pressure, can tell you about wind speed by showing areas where pressure gradients are strongest. The closer isobars are together, the stronger the pressure gradient and the faster the wind speed. Wind will flow from high pressure to low pressure areas along isobars.
