Message: [QUOTE="Chin Diesel, post: 4043099, member: 34"] good point. You'll sometimes see buildings which survive these storms with markers on the wall showing how high the water rose inside it. I don't ever remember seeing walls or other markings showing the maximum winds sustained by the same structure. It is important for those who are in the storm area to know what the maximum wind speed may be but that's almost more of a crap shoot since very few in the area will actually experience winds at that top speed. Many more feel the effects of the rain directly and then the flooding of buildings, waterways and utility infrastructure. [/QUOTE]
