ents of up to at least 60m/s;
Vector Instruments A100R and A100 LK both have max measurements of around= 75 m/s.
> RM Youngs 05103 model has a maximum measurement reading of 60 m/s but off=
ers a maximum gust survival of 100 m/s.

More interesting you are not interested in advertising the link. Not that I don't believe you.
Wind Converter:
100 m/s =3D 194 knots 360 kph and 224 mph. But only 12 Beaufort?
194.4 knotsformatting link's try that in American: 223.7 mph
100 m/s (meters per second)
328.1 ft/s (feet per second)
360 km/h (kilometers per hour)

This is a brill site but maybe I should have just posted a link?
