Validation of Radar-based Discrete Wind Gust Analysis for Determination of Location-Specific Historical Wind Speeds
Historical wind speed analyses are of pivotal importance in forensic meteorology endeavors, especially those involved with insurance claims, legal disputes, property damage assessments, and risk evaluations.
Use of the Enhanced Fujita Scale for Estimating Non-Tornadic Wind Events Validated by Verisk Benchmark Hurricane Report and Radar-based Discrete Wind Gust Analysis
By analyzing defined environmental damage indicators (DI) and assessing them for specific degrees of damage (DOD), the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale provides a means to estimate wind speeds in a retrograde fashion.
