75 mph winds can move objects weighing up to 20 pounds.
Most tornadoes have winds in the range of about 65-85 mph. The most damaging tornadoes usually have winds over 165 mph. On rare occasions winds can exceed 300 mph.
The winds in a tornado can vary greatly and be any where between 65 and 300+ MPH. The majority of tornadoes have winds of 110 mph or less while the most damaging have estimated winds over 135 mph.
No. a typical tornado moves between 25 and 40 mph. Winds in a tornado are faster, however. Some tornadoes can produce winds in excess of 300 mph, but only within a small portion of the tornado and no single location would experience such winds for more than a few seconds. The rest of the tornado will produce significantly slower, though still very strong winds. Tornadoes this strong are very rare however. Most tornadoes have peak winds of less than 110 mph.
Tornado winds can reach speeds of up to 300 mph (480 km/h), making them one of the most destructive forces of nature. The highest wind speeds are typically found in the most intense tornadoes, known as EF5 tornadoes.
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.

Yes. By definition a blizzard has winds of at least 35 mph, but winds can be much stronger, and winds of 67 mph are very possible. Blizzards have produced wind gusts to over 90 mph.
No, tornadoes typically have wind speeds much higher than 74 mph. Tornado wind speeds can range from 65 mph to over 300 mph, with stronger tornadoes capable of producing winds over 200 mph. A tornado with 74 mph winds would likely be considered a weak tornado.
Yes; winds of 50 MPH will cause it to sway up to three inches.
In terms of forward traveling speed most tornadoes move at 30-35 mph. However some tornadoes cam move at over 70 mph while others are stationary. Winds in a tornado can range from 65 mph to over 300 mph.
Most tornadoes have winds in the range of about 65-85 mph. The most damaging tornadoes usually have winds over 165 mph. On rare occasions winds can exceed 300 mph.
Hurricanes have sustained winds of at least 74 mph (119 km/h) as classified by the Saffir-Simpson scale. However, hurricanes can sometimes have much stronger winds exceeding 150 mph (241 km/h) or even higher in the most powerful storms.
Winds with a speed within the range of 4 mph to 31 mph are categorized as light to moderate breezes. These winds are typically gentle and can be felt on the face. They are strong enough to move leaves and small branches but do not cause significant damage.
Winds range from 65 mph to over 300 mph. Winds over 200 mph are very rare. Most tornadoes have winds within the range of 65-85 mph.
It varies widely. The weakest have winds of about 65 mph, while the strongest have winds over 300 mph.
If you mean Katrina peak winds were 175 mph. If you mean Katia peak winds were 135 mph.
The winds in a tornado can vary greatly and be any where between 65 and 300+ MPH. The majority of tornadoes have winds of 110 mph or less while the most damaging have estimated winds over 135 mph.
