Particularly dangerous situation wind chill warning NPW – Extremely low wind chills of −30 °F (−34 °C) or lower creating an enhanced risk of frostbite, hypothermia and death are imminent or occurring. This definitional criteria was consolidated along with the parent Wind Chill Warning product into the Extreme Cold Warning product in ...

The JMA divides the typhoon category into three categories, with a 10-minute maximum wind speed below 84 kn (43 m/s; 97 mph; 156 km/h) assigned for the (strong) typhoon category. A very strong typhoon has wind speeds between 85–104 kn (44–54 m/s; 98–120 mph; 157–193 km/h), while a violent typhoon has wind speeds of 105 kn (54 m/s; 121 ...
The Saffir–Simpson hurricane wind scale (SSHWS) is a scale that classifies hurricanes—which in the Western Hemisphere are tropical cyclones that exceed the intensities of tropical depressions and tropical storms—into five categories distinguished by the intensities of their sustained winds.
The International Fujita scale (abbreviated as IF-Scale) is a scale that rates the intensity of tornadoes and other wind events based on the severity of the damage they cause. [1] It is used by the European Severe Storms Laboratory (ESSL) and various other organizations including Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) and State Meteorological Agency ...
The National Weather Service's arrow showing the EF scale. This includes a description word for each level of the scale. The Enhanced Fujita scale (abbreviated as EF-Scale) is a scale that rates tornado intensity based on the severity of the damage they cause.
From these wind speed numbers, qualitative descriptions of damage were made for each category of the Fujita scale, and then these descriptions were used to classify tornadoes. [ 9 ] At the time Fujita derived the scale, little information was available on damage caused by wind, so the original scale presented little more than educated guesses ...
