Hi all
Thanks, Olli for pointing it out. I already know, but I use "Northern Storm"
and "Hurricane" as titles only!
If I telk about...
...Northern Storm - I mean gale what has winds between 17,2-32,6 m/s.
...Northern Hurricane/Hurricane - I mean gale what has hurricane-force
winds.
Scale
Type | Winds (meters per
second)---------------------------|
1st category Northern Storm | 17,2-20,7
2nd category Northern Storm | 20,8-24,4
3rd category Northern Storm |24,5-28,4
4th category Northern Storm | 28,5-32,6
1st category Hurricane | 32,7-41,1
2nd category Hurricane | 41,2-50,0
3rd category Hurricane | 50,1-59,3
4th category Hurricane | 59,4-69,0
5th category Hurricane | 69,1-79,1
I repeat. If I was talking about Category 1st Hurricane Helgi, I was talking
about a gale, what has maximum winds between 32,7-41,1 m/s.
Last year on Christmas Eve, we were hit by Category 4th Northern Storm
Valdur. It means: Gale with winds between 28,5-32,6 m/s
It is still peaceful yet, it is cloudy. But in the western coast, winds are
already picking up and wind gusts are up to 13 m/s in Kuressaare.
Stay safe!
Tarmo Tanilsoo
