The Beaufort Wind Scale categorizes various wind speeds up to hurricane strength (74 miles per hour) and is used in weather forecasting. It says that 55 to 63 mph gale winds can break large branches off trees and knock down small to medium-sized trees.
As wind speed increases, thereâs a rapid increase in power, but the power output only hits 1 kW (the rated output) when the wind speed is around 11 m/s (nearly 25 mph). To put that into perspective, if your land had average wind speeds of 25 mph, all of your trees would be permanently bent.
