35 km/h wind speed, is it too much ?
well, so heck difficult to walk through, then checked out to see the speed of the wind and says 35km/h...

So, is it, any chance, in storm scale ?

35 knots is getting pretty windy but 35 km is no big deal. You must live in a place where it is rarely windy if you think that is a high wind speed.

However, if you have a light breeze but it is raining that might be a pretty harsh storm.

I was at an airstrip near a small town in the Pyranees many years ago. One of the pilots was asking if I was cold, since it was Feburary and I was only wearing a hoodie.

I could not pronounce the words right but I was trying to say, in Canada at that time of year it would be considered a warm day.

Agreed 80 clicks is getting pretty sporty...

Having said all that, I would rather not be in a row boat on a big lake with a 35km/hour wind blowing.

So even though that's not what I consider a storm it's certainly windy enough to start effecting my day under the right circumstances.

20km/h in a aluminum canoe sucks, let alone 35
