You can buy a wind speed indicator, or use the Beaufort Scalehttp://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/units/scales/beaufort.html

Usually your local weather web site will have it listed. If you want it for kite flying info in regard to this kite, it needs a fairly good wind, like enough to move tree branches but not blow the leaves off if you know what I mean. A noticeably windy day, but not one that blows your hat off.

depends on what air pressure ypou inflate to. Only way to accuartly measure is to inflate as you will ride it, then put tire valve at bottom of tire touching ground (mark spot), roll it forward 2 revolutions until valve is again at bottom (mark spot), and measure distance, divide by 2 (I use 2 revolutions for accuracy).

Sorry, don't know. but mine broke in the wind and i had to return it. I was then charged a hefty return postal fee. lost over 100.00 in 2weeks.

I live in Oregon and it does get wind here. If the wind shold ever tear down the sail, it would not damage the deck.

Well, depends on what you mean by wind. Normal wind, sure. Gale force, no. What table would?

We just had winds of 45 mph and 0 degree temps and no problem. I did make my own roof mount though. The antennae has no problem!

Jack, I emailed the manufacture and they sent some instructions. This is what they sent to me: To set your barometer please follow these instructions: 1. Get an accurate barametric pressure reading from your weather service or airport. 2. Turn the adjustment screw, if you need to, to the barometer to the reading of your weather station. 3. There are two needles. One that automatically follows the changes in atmospheric pressure while the other one remains fixed until moved by hand. 4. Set the movable dail by hand to coincide with the needle marking the current pressure. 5. Watch for the needle that follows the pressure changes to move up or down from that fixed point. Tap the barometer lightly before taking the reading. 6. Compare the readings to the weather reports and other reports of barometric pressures in your area to confirm the accuracy of your unit. I hope this helps!

My hands are small so winding isn't always a full turn. takes me 15 to 20 turns. Turn slowly and you can tell when you reach full wind. Running time is about 30 minutes.

Call the company directly and they will tell you which one to order. They are super helpful! We replaced ours and it holds up to -30 and 20-30 mph winds in Minot, ND! Buy with confidence.

I'm not sure but I live in Florida and we just had over 40 mile winds and my birdhouse is still standing.

The flow is actually determined by the head of the water since the diameter of the nozzle is fixed, and the maxium velocity is determined by the head of water: v=(2gh)^0.5 I haven't checked how much head, but it must be between two or three meters.

I live in the NW- By Seattle,WA. We get high winds mostly spring and fall-winter. So far, My screen fence has withstood the current high winds- Mine is Doubled up for extra privacy- facing West- to East secured on my side of the chain link. Mine billows like a sail and so far handles wind just fine- Single layer Vs wind ? should work fine. Some sunlight will show thru. kinda sparkles in late afternoon sun. Hope this helps- I've only had mine a month + D.Durham

I do not have high winds in my area however it is a mesh type fabric and the air passes through readily. It does not move much here.

We have only tried all the way up and all the way down. we usually keep it down so that we have a little extra space around the canopy on our deck. The best thing about this canopy I would say is that it has been sturdy in 20+ mph winds. beyond that wind speed we just lower the legs so that the canopy stands about 5ft. high and then we add some weight to the tarp itself (plant pots.,etc.) so that the canopy stays in place.

I am using it to block view on a very sturdy chain link fence 6 feet tall. I installed heavy duty cable ties and pulled it tight. We have had wind no more than 15-20 mph and it blocks some but not all of the wind. It is a weave fabric and air can flow through.

Really depends on wind speed place the feeder hole on the down wind side. I have used it just fine in windy conditions at about 15mph. If you have a wind shield that really helps.

Your best bet is to go on to the garden winds website and check there. Email them if you can't find what you are looking for, they are pretty responsive and helpful.
