unleashed a wind faster than most supercars.
Let’s break down this insane record 👇
🌀 When and where?
Date: April 10, 1996
Location: Barrow Island, Australia
Event: Tropical Cyclone Olivia
🌬️ During this storm, a wind gust was recorded at 253 mph (407 km/h) —
still the fastest non-tornado wind speed ever observed on Earth.
⚠️ That’s faster than:
A Formula 1 car 🏎️
A Category 5 hurricane’s sustained winds
The takeoff speed of a Boeing 747 ✈️
---
🧠 Bonus:
These extreme winds were verified by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
The measuring station remained intact, confirming the accuracy of the reading.
So yeah — Earth can go full beast mode when it wants to.
And 253 mph winds are no joke.
