The most intense storm by lowest pressure and peak 10-minute sustained winds was Typhoon Tip, which was also the most intense tropical cyclone ever recorded in terms of minimum central pressure. Storms with a minimum pressure of 899 hPa (26.55 inHg) or less are listed. Storm information was less reliably documented and recorded before 1950. [6]
On May 3, 1999, an F5 tornado struck Bridge Creek and Moore, Oklahoma, with winds of over 300 mph - the highest wind speed ever recorded on Earth. Nearly 600 people were injured, and 36 were ...
Within this area, a mobile Doppler weather radar initially recorded winds of 301 mph (484 km/h) within the tornado at Bridge Creek – subsequent reanalysis in 2021 revised this value to 321 mph (517 km/h), the highest wind speed ever recorded on Earth. [1] [21] Since the record for maximum winds are reported from only non-tornadic events ...
The Guinness World Records later certified that the drone documented the highest wind speed ever recorded by an uncrewed surface vehicle at 126.4 mph. See Incredible Video From Inside Hurricane ...
Fastest ever recorded: 484±32 km/h (301±20 mph) (3-second gust); calculated by a DOW (Doppler On Wheels) radar unit in the 1999 Bridge Creek–Moore tornado between Oklahoma City and Moore, Oklahoma, USA, 3 May 1999. Recently, the wind speeds were re-examined and adjusted to a maximum official wind speed of 321 mph (516.6 km/h).
Highest wind gusts: 113.4 m/s (254 mph; 220.4 kn; 408 km/h) April 10, 1996: Cyclone Olivia in Barrow Island, Western Australia [11] Highest accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) index for a tropical cyclone: 87: February 4, 2023 – March 14, 2023: Cyclone Freddy in the Australian region and South-West Indian Ocean [12] [13]
Hurricane Patricia was the most powerful tropical cyclone on record worldwide in terms of maximum sustained winds and the second-most intense on record worldwide in terms of pressure, with a minimum atmospheric pressure of 872 mbar (hPa; 25.75 inHg), behind Typhoon Tip's 870 mbar. [1]
It produced a wind gust of 301 mph, the highest winds ever recorded on Earth. [5] The outbreak then produced at least seven tornadoes in Tennessee on May 5. One F4 tornado struck Linden in Perry County, killing three people, while an F2 tornado struck Gallatin in Sumner County injuring 17. [12]
