[QUOTE="Mike Brown, post: 79811, member: 2567"] The advice about the numbers above is very sound, and there are indeed some very good apps around to tell you about wind speed forecasts. But they are only forecasts and not predictions, and you need to have a way of assessing the wind at your own site. Perhaps I am biased, having been involved with meteorology privately and professionally for many years, it I do think learning the Beaufort scale would give you so much more confidence in judging if the wind speeed at your site is safe. Yeah I know it’s old, even older than me, but it does work, and works better than those hand held anemometers you can buy for very little money. [/QUOTE]
