What wind speeds and gusts can usually damage houses or trees?
2017年10月29日 · In terms of general damage, in the United States, we consider 50 knots (58 mph, 93 km/h) to be the speed where the likelihood of notable damage is high enough. Damage can occur to some very vulnerable objects (things like tarps and tents (and umbrellas!) can way well before that) at lower speeds.
