the wind speed is really in "knt" (1 knt=1,852 km/h) and you have 2 datas in the description balloon, the maximum sustained wind in storm of 120 knt (the first speed data ,now for rita) and the maximum wind gusts in storm of 145 knt. => 120 knt = 222 km/h = 138 mph (about 145 mph) ps: i have changed the description balloon to be more "international" _________________________ (i try to do my best with my poor english) Google Earth Storm Tracking tools Vitual cruise in GE on Costa Boat with live positions tracker and onboard webcam Tour de france 2009 live tracker |
