The speed at which the air current moves- and the direction from which it moves determines what the wind is named and also determines weather the wind is harmful or beneficial. A wind of 19 to 24 mile an hour is classified as a fresh breeze- and is not harmful. When the wind reaches a speed of 47 miles an hour- it is called a strong gale- and may cause some damage to fruit crops. At 64-75 miles an hour- it is considered a wind storm and dangerous to both crops and properties. Above 75 miles an hour- when it is classified as a hurricane- wind is devastating among its damage to crops- properties- and man himself.

The most dangerous wind of all winds is the tornado- a swirling movement of the wind in a counterclockwise direction- sometimes at more than 300 miles per house. The speed of a tornado has never been measures accurately- but the destruction is almost incredible.
