Wind Intensity Classification (Beaufort Scale)
How Wind Data Is Monitored
Surface wind observations are captured by the National Weather Service (NWS), NOAA, and Automated Surface Observing Systems (ASOS) located across thousands of US airports and meteorological stations. Measurements record sustained 10-meter wind velocity, peak momentary gusts, and angular compass bearings.
